Section: Communications, Smartphones, Web, Websites  Just in time for the holiday shopping season, Ebay has released an auction app for BlackBerry smartphones. The free app is available for download in BlackBerry App World and was co-developed with RIM. It allows users to search for, track and bid on auctions from their BlackBerry phones. The app also integrates with the BlackBerry calendar to allow the user to set up auction reminders and it will alert the user to changes in bidding status including being outbid and if they've won or lost.
There is already a third party Ebay app available in BB App World, but it goes for $10 and doesn't offer the integration that the native Ebay app does. This could mean bad news for Pocket Auctions and a bright holiday season for the Ebay one. If you are an Ebay user and have a BlackBerry, which app will you chose? Leave a comment with your thoughts! The app works with all BlackBerry phones running the 4.5 OS or higher and is available for download here. Read [Cnet] Full Story » | Written by Sue Walsh for Gadgetell. | Comment on this Article »
