Price Checker site ... with a small difference

Hi

I've noticed that quite a few people on here recommend, amongst others, the price checker site https://www.find-dvd.co.uk, which is a site that I run.

We've created a price comparison site that also has a version that runs on an internet-connected mobile device. The idea being that you can check the prices of DVDs, CDs, Books, Video Games, Cameras, DVD players etc whilst out and about in the shops, and use the results to haggle, price-match and so on.

The url for information about the mobile service is https://www.wotprice.co.uk/mobileService.aspx , and it should run pretty much on any internet-enabled mobile device (I've tested it on a Motorola V545 phone and a Nokia and all seemed OK).

I'd appreciate any feedback, comments or suggestions you might have please. Do you think its a useful service?

Thanks
Jon

    Hi John
    Personally i like and use the find-dvd site myself.

    The idea looks quite good , but i usually check the price of the things i want before i go into town - saving myself the hassle of trying to navigate my phones horrible , fiddly 3g menu's - but then again i'm a bit of a techie fossil.

    As i said though the ideas good - but the photo's of the phone on the website could do with being replaced , with ones that are in focus ;)


    good luck and keep up the good work with find-dvd
