DESCRIPTION
Are you tired of checking your "My eBay" account for soon ending auctions or getting unreliable reminder mails? Take a closer look at Baywatch.

It catches the actual auction opened in your frontmost browser window and sticks it right into iCal. You can specify the reminder alarm in the preferences and if you wish to add another auction the "Refresh button" is your friend. Adding an auction to iCal is as simple as reopening the auction by clicking the URL in the event information.

So you can easily organize your eBay auctions and never bother about any missed opportunities.

PROFINITE  This new release v1.5 does not seem to work with Safari 3.1 (5525.13) on OS 10.5.2.

If someone has gotten this version working, please post your success.  (Version 1.5)

STEVE R  Stopped working. After I bought a new-to-me computer and reload the software the application started giving me error messages -- "Baywatch can't find an ebay auction in your front most window." Since I'd grown to depend on this **great little app**, I was a bit saddened that it somehow got broke.

In searching for an update, a previous comment led me down the right path. When I re-installed the OS, some location settings were changed so trying to add an eBay.COM auction wasn't working. Adding eBay.CA auctions is working.

Hint: sometimes having an ebay.com/yada/yada auction in the front window will work simply by changing to ebay.CA/yada/yada. I have no idea if this will work for ebay.fr, etc.  (Version 1.0)

****.

SMACTRON  This software is simple and great. Will it ever be updated as a Universal Binary, though? I hope so!  (Version 1.0)

***½.

JLARO  It doesn't work properly for me. It might be due to the fact that my OS X (and therefore my iCal) is in French, or that eBay changed its date display at some point. The eBay pages I look at are in English.

Examples:

A listed eBay.com end time is "Feb-06-06 17:11:39 PST", but Baywatch puts it in my calendar on June 17th, 2006, at 11:39.

A listed eBay.ca end time is "06-Feb-06 18:57:39 EST", but Baywatch puts it in my calendar on June 18th, 2006, at 00:00.

So until this is resolved this program is of absolutely no use.

To the developer: it would be useful to show the end date in the Baywatch window so we can make sure it's the right one before adding the event to the calendar.  (Version 1.0)
