Psssst! Buddy! Want To Buy a Pocket PC?

[Brad Adrian]

<div class='os_post_top_link'><a href='http://www.pocketpcclassifieds.com' target='_blank'>http://www.pocketpcclassifieds.com</a><br /><br /></div>If you're looking for a new resource for buying, selling and trading Pocket PCs and Windows CE devices, Matt Murray has just launched a new site you might be interested in, <a href="http://www.pocketpcclassifieds.com">PocketPCClassifieds.com</a>.<br /><br /><img src="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/images/adrian/classifieds.gif" /><br /><br />In order to sell or trade your device, all you have to do is register. Because it's a brand new site, listings are understandably sparse, but just to get things rolling, Matt is waiving the usual listing fee until January 1st, 2004.<br /><br />I know that a lot of us frequent eBay when looking for "toys" to buy and sell. However, this kind of site that focuses specifically on Pocket PCs should make it a LOT easier for me to find just the kind of stuff I like. I hope we all give Matt some business and visit his site often.

Site is user friendly to post listing and upload pictures. The pricing can't be beat right now!

Good luck Matt.

Nice site and easy to navigate. I just posted some stuff for sale there.

Reminds me of ebay, and I have bookmarked for future use! It could be a good place to pick up some killer deals!

Thanks guys, I'm glad you're liking the site! I can't tell you how much I appreciate everyone who has visited and especially all of you who have listed items. And thank you Brad for listing it here.
Also, it might be worth noting that if you are looking for something specific, you can enter keywords in your account and you'll receive an email when some one lists an item that matches one of your keywords. :) Just FYI. ;)

You can 'have your password emailed to you'? This is quite a security risk. :\

[WialyDiody]

I'm welcome any suggestions, what would you recommend instead of the 'email my password'?

[qmrq]

If a user has lost their password, they should have the ability to create a temporary password that is stored in a separate table in the database. This password is good for one login only, and is destroyed when it is used, or when the user logs in normally.

Storing passwords in cleartext as you seem to be doing is a big security risk. You should use PHPs crypt() or md5() functions and store a hash of the pass in the database, not the actual password.

[WialyDiody]

Ok, thanks. I'll try to get that done today. :)

[qmrq]

Good deal. Aside from what I mentioned, I think the site is pretty cool. :)

[WialyDiody]

Ok, it is all now md5 encrypted. There shouldn't be any problems, but if anybody does have any trouble logging on after the conversion, please let me know. Now we can all sleep a little better tonight ;)

Excellent! 8) I can go make offers on some things now. =)
