Combine the power of eBay with the mobility of a wireless device. Free yourself from the home or office and use eBay on the road, in a meeting, or simply from the comfort of your couch, anywhere your busy life takes you. Sellers and buyers alike will enjoy the ability to search, browse, bid, and monitor active auction items directly on their mobile device, from anywhere. Experience the full power of eBay anywhere you may be, everywhere you need. Get eBay to GO!"<br /><br /><img src="http://www.smartphonethoughts.com/images/module-photoshare-viewimage-iid-40.html" alt="User submitted image" title="User submitted image"/> <br /><br />The price seems very reasonable, the monthly subscription rate is $2.99, or you can pay annually at a rate of $24.99. While I do use eBay, I don't use it often enough to warrant purchasing any applications like this. Is anyone using Abidia's mobile application? Oh, and in case you're wondering Abidia is pronounced "uh-bid-ee-uh". :wink:

I downloaded this and took for for a spin, but kept getting errors - it wouldn't connect and get my eBay data. So not very impressive for now - I'll try it again today and see what happens.

Which version did you try, the Wireless? or the Mobile? I found the versions a little confusing at first. The Mobile version syncs eBay data using ActiveSync only. Where as the wireless version is meant for GPRS and WiFi connections.

First I tried the Pocket PC 2003 wireless version, but it bombed out and wouldn't install. :? Next I tried the wireless version on my Smartphone, and it installed, but when I tried to do the Sync All function, it bombed out on me.

There's a whole lot of staring at the hourglass with this app...very poor progress visualizations.
