Recursive or auto complete search field

Hi,
  I have a Salesforce custom object Unit with over 30,000 units (records).  I want to add a field to a visual force page that will allow the user to begin entering their unit name (Name field) and have the system do a recursive lookup to a unit record in the Unit object.  The field would limit the options as they type or show predictive text based on the options as they type.  Some systems call this auto complete or live search capability. Can this done from a visual force page?  If you have done this, can you share some sample code?

Thanks!
