I have seen the future.

I bought a tiny robot by texting this company and paying via my cell. How?

I activated mobile payments on Paypal. I sent a text message to 40543. As soon as I sent the text, I received an automated call from Paypal asking for my PIN and to verify my mailing address. Bing-bang-boom. My wind-up robot's in the mail!
