***My eBay For Guests***
Date: 05/04/05 Time: 09:02:25 AM PDT
People who have not yet registered will soon be able to watch up to 10 items in a very basic version of My eBay. They also will be able to sign up for email reminders that will notify them a few hours prior to an item's ending (just like registered members).
Please note that this will not affect My eBay for registered members. Guests will have to register prior to bidding, listing, and accessing all other registration-required features. If they choose to register, their Watched items will be transferred to their regular My eBay automatically.
For more information about My eBay for Guests, please see our Help page and Frequently Asked Questions.

Swell. So now we'll have a host of newbies, watching things--and deciding to bid in the last 5 minutes, only to encounter ebay's SLOW transfer of them over to the registration desk to register with CC etc., and then a SLOW trip back to the item, which will have ended by that time.
