Is the urge to buy stuff so strong that we can't even wait to get home and do it online? Apparently, it is. Amazon has launched TextBuyIt, a service that lets you search for and buy items on Amazon directly from your mobile.
The process is quite simple, as you can see in the picture below:

You send an SMS search query to 262966 (AMAZON); if Amazon stocks items that fit the description, it will list them in a message. The results are displayed in pairs; if you want more results, reply to a search results message with ‘m’ to get the next two results. Reply with the number of the item you want to buy; you'll get a call from Amazon with details; after confirming the order, you're good to go. Usage of the service will incur no additional fee.
