Having done a fair bit of software development, I truly appreciate the amount of work that has gone into this app and the motivation behind it.

I'm not sure what I think about it.

On the one hand, it isn't "real time" in game, doesn't have the "find trader" option, and does require you to interact with another person, making it far less offensive than bazaar.

On the other hand, haggling, trading, and generally interacting with people was one of my favorite parts of EQ, and one of the things I was most excited about for P99 (sadly, the NFP zone wasn't used, not quite as much nostalgia for EC =p)

I am distrusting of "improvements" that add convenience as others have mentioned, but I think that not everyone will use this (I won't, but good job), and so the net impact on EC population / the ability to trade with people in a "classic" sense won't be too drastically affected.

Here's hoping we aren't leading ourselves down the same road EQLive took.
