Trade Me adds touch site

Trade Me has launched a version of its site optimised for touch screens, sparing smartphone users the effort of downloading an app for iPhone or Android.

The site will run on iPhone, Android and BlackBerry, with support for Windows Phone coming soon.

Users can search, bid and buy, ask and answer questions, and view their account details and 'My Trade Me' pages. Functions for browsing, placing feedback, editing notes and selecting favourites are all on their way too.

Go here to give the Trade Me Touch site a try, and let us know your thoughts - is it better or worse than the Trade Me mobile apps, or pretty much the same?
