Default Smarter.com Launches True Comparison Shopping via SMS

http://www.smarter.com/sms/

"Smarter.com, one of the fastest growing comparison shopping search engines, announced today the Beta launch of its free shopping service via SMS (Short Messaging Service)...Consumers can access the free Smarter SMS service by text messaging product names or SKUs (commonly known as manufacturer part numbers) to (610) SMARTER or (610) 762-7837. Consumers are free to search using generic keywords like ‘mini ipods’ or ‘dell dimension’, but are recommended to be as specific as possible, using the SKU number for best results."

Smarter.com claims that its SMS based search engine is superior to the recently launched Google service, because it returns the lowest price for the user specified product. They even have a side by side comparison of the two services, check it out over here. I am all for competition and free services. ;-)
