NearbyNow sends mall shoppers into stores, and GPShopper lines up a phone call to a store. Both of those likely result in an in-store sale, so it is added business.<BR/><BR/>Scanbuy is definitely a threat to brick-and-mortar. I wouldn't be surprised to find out it is funded by Amazon and eBay.<BR/><BR/>In all cases though, brick and mortar are going to have to be ready for free full information. Much like the auto industry found out when all car buyers came in with details about wholesale prices, every mobie-enabled consumer will know everything. <BR/><BR/>TAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9191890.post-56758183912311618912007-06-14T01:10:00.000-04:002007-06-14T01:10:00.000-04:00ScanBuy sounds awesome.
