Conscious uncoupling
eBay will spin off its online payment division PayPal into its own separate, and publicly traded, company sometime in the second half of 2015. eBay claims that keeping PayPal around beyond 2015 "clearly becomes less advantageous to each business strategically and competitively." eBay acquired PayPal for $1.5 billion way back in 2002. In announcing today's separation, eBay said:...
If you're looking for BlackBerry PlayBook, then we have a deal for you. Ebay is currently selling the 16GB version of the PlayBook for just $69.99. That's a sharp discount from its normal price of $499.99. This price is about $32 less than what is listed for the 16GB PlayBook on Amazon right now. However, you can double your storage for just about $16 more, picking up the 32GB...
Ahh, the BlackBerry Kopi. It was rumored time and time again to eventually be released but at some point it fell off the map and at this point will most likely never see the light of day but that doesn't necessarily mean you can't have one. That is as long as you have $500+ and don't mind purchasing it through eBay. Up for sale right now is one white BlackBerry Kopi sporting BlackBerry...
eBay has announced today that users of the popular service should change their passwords immediately due to a cyber attack that compromised a database containing encrypted passwords. A press release sent out by the company stresses that only non-financial data was affected. Hastily investigating the matter, eBay found no evidence of any unauthorized access to financial or credit card...
If you've downloaded the eBay app for BlackBerry 10 in the past, you no doubt noticed it was a massive battery hog. A new update is now available and while I'd love to be able to say the battery issues are now resolved, I simply don't know because eBay is apparently too lazy to update their change log. In fact, they seemingly just straight up copied it from the Android version as far as...

For those of you out there who weren't able to attend one the BlackBerry Experience launch events held around the world but are still looking to get your hands on a BlackBerry Z10 as soon as possible, eBay is the best place to look for one right now. Unless of course you live in the UK, where they went on sale already. If you head on over there and do a search BlackBerry Z10, you'll...
Less than a week ago we saw not one, but two BlackBerry 10 Dev Alpha units sell for nearly $1,000 on eBay. Now there is another listing for a Dev Alpha (we're unsure if it's an A or B - or if the auction is even legit for that matter) that is running up over $2,000 -- which is crazy. Aside from the fact that it is illegal (and totally unethical) to sell one of these devices, shelling...
In years past we've seen pre-release devices show up on eBay weeks before an official launch. Some of them may or may not have shown up at a certain BlackBerry lover's doorstep - but that's old news. While I've been anxiously searching auction sites for an early BlackBerry 10 device (there are none to be found so don't bother) it turns out that there are a few BlackBerry 10 Dev Alpha ...
One for all you eBay users out there. If you're using the eBay app on BlackBerry right now, you may find it is lacking in some areas. Plus, it's certainly in need of a makeover. It's looking as though it will get just that when BlackBerry 10 arrives. As designs show, a new eBay for BlackBerry 10 app is in the works and will offer up many visual and performance enhancements. Much...
