It’s been some time we’ve been hearing that popular PayPal service will be available from mobile phone. Well, that finally happened and millions of PayPal users will now be able to get “what they want, when they want it.”
To use the service, you need to register your phone and create a PIN. After that, PayPal uses an automated system to call you on the number provided to verify the PIN, and voila, you’re set to start using it.
The usage itself is as easy as it can be. You can either text the amount and recipient’s phone number to PayPal, or call a toll free number and follow the directions.
Of course, PayPal Mobile could be also used for buying. This service is called “Text to Buy.”
More information is available from the PayPal’s site. (via: TechCrunch)

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
