eBay and Opera Software today announced a joint pilot project to bring eBay's Online Marketplace(R) to mobile phones in Germany. By offering a customized version of the popular Opera Mini mobile Web browser, eBay and Opera will enable people to sell, bid and buy using their mobile phones, anywhere, anytime. Because Opera Mini is a full HTML Web browser, eBay.de can now offer its users the same feature-rich experience on mobile phones as on PCs. The German Opera Mini eBay edition is available as a free WAP download from http://mini.opera.com/ebay/ or by sending an SMS with the word OPERA to 88881 (€0.49)*.
eBay Germany has 20 million customers, making it the largest eBay community outside of the USA. In total, eBay has more than 193 million registered users worldwide.
