The BlackBerry App World is slowly but surely gaining ground as a storefront for distributing BlackBerry applications. eBay is the latest major company to go about creating an application for the platform, in the form of an eBay app for BlackBerry auctioneers in the U.S. and Canada.

The official eBay for BlackBerry application includes features to search for, track, and buy an item from the phone. Unsurprisingly, the eBay app accepts PayPal payments seeing as ebay owns paypal, it is also currently the only payment system for purchasing BlackBerry apps through the App World.

 

In addition to letting users search and buy, the eBay app will notify you of your bidding status, including when you’ve won or lost a bid. It can also schedule auction-related reminders in the BlackBerry calendar.
