The use of 3D is interesting, and makes me wonder if a similar direction could make eBid really stand out above the crowds.
If you've used the latest iTunes or an iPod Touch you'll know what I'm talking about - browsing bookmarked websites or your albums in a sort of 3D flip book; imagine utilizing this technology (if it's possible) for browsing auctions, going through your gallery, that sort of thing. I know it's just a visual gimmick, but boy it's a good one!
I shall be investigating it further anyway. It may turn out to be a closed tech that's proprietary to Apple, but worth a look methinks.
