eBay Wireless Premium

Now available on most major carriers, including Verizon Wireless, eBay Wireless Premium is one of the best mobile extensions of a Web service we have seen. Almost all of the major eBay operations are available from an exceptionally user-friendly and clean downloadable app. Item search results are speedy, and each listing lets you drill into payment terms, product images, and other necessities, as well as turn on an item watch or alarm. Even bidding is streamlined for mobile; directional keys ratchet through price increments, and numerical shortcuts are assigned to every choice.
 

My eBay is available in truncated form, and the system saves your recent searches so you can return quickly to check prices and additional items. Veteran eBayers will appreciate the alert functions, which send outbid and end-of-sale text messages to your cell. You can’t yet put items up for sale from the phone itself, but you can monitor your own auctions. The only downside we can see to this exceptional application is that it may tempt you to use eBay more than you should.
