Google Instant is now obtainable for image search results, but only as an experimental feature. After you allow "Instant on Images", Google will found to auto complete your queries and show image results before you finish entering the query. It's a great way to try dissimilar queries and see the results almost right away.
Unfortunately, there are some confines that make this feature less useful. "Search by Image will not work if you opt into this experiment. Also, Instant on Images is obtainable only if you already have Instant on Web. Finally, this experiment is enabled only for the Images search result page, not on the Google Images home page."
You can try this feature without joining Google's experiment: just append &esrch=ImagesInstant::PublicOptIn to an Image Search URL, like this or bookmark this page.
Google also additional an experiment for Voice Search, which allows you to try the feature before it's available for you. Voice Search only works in Google Chrome 11+.
Google says that you can't select multiple experiments at the same time, but I've managed to allow both Voice Search and Instant on Images. For some reason, you won't be able to use Search by Image when you allow Voice Search, even if Instant on Images is disabled.
