Cellphone auctions

Yahoo! Japan, which rules the roost for online auctions in Japan, is adding a logical extra feature that snips the last shackle binding budding auctioners to a PC. You can now upload product snaps from your cameraphone along with the details of the junk—sorry, treasure—you're trying to shift, meaning that schoolgirls of an enterprising bent can start disposing of that latest present from their sugar daddies without delay. You can also use all the other auction features, too, so "down-to-the-wire bidding frenzy" now joins the list of surreptitious cellphone activities you can use to while away tedious meetings.
