Craigslist App

I have a program on my home computer that searches Craigslist for certain criteria and sends me email every few minutes. i.e.- I can tell it I want to search for Pandorian Alligators in Charlotte for under $500 and it will tell me when one is posted. The only drawback is that I have to leave the home computer up all the time and that causes problems with the ancient computer.

Does anyone know of an App for the Droid that does the same thing?
 
In craigslist, when you do a search for a certain item, it'll give you a RSS feed option for that search, I sync that to google reader and use NewsRob on my phone.

That way I can have basically search keywords and when something new comes up on craigslist under that search, I'll see it in NewsRob on my phone.. I check my phone a couple times an hour for new posts.

Just my $.02
 
I got the 3 dollar app, CraigsAlert. Seems to work great so far, just enter an item to search for and it pops up a notification when one comes available on CL.
 
I use CraigsNotifica, no problems with it at all. I've even snagged a few items because I was the first to call about it (thanks to the notifications on my Droid!)
