Buy From Amazon Via Text Message
Amazon has recently added a feature that allows you to purchase products from them via text message.
This is useful for when you are out and about and see a product you want to purchase but figure Amazon likely has it cheaper. Instead of having to remember to check later, you can check via text message and if it fits what you want then you can proceed with the purchase.
Seems like a very savvy way to provide mobile purchasing without requiring a data plan.
There is a bit of presetting to do to link your account to your phone and be sure the shipping is in order, but it seems like a pretty easy process. Of course, standard text messaging rates will apply.
