This looks like a pretty cool feature. Ebay recently launched a tool to create widgets which will embed any auction listing on an ordinary webpage. Info on this can be found here. Demos here. And the tool itself, here.
Unfortunately, we won't be able to use it here on the forums, though conceivably the mods could create a hack to allow embedding these Flash objects and only ones generated by eBay.
It looks like there are still a lot of issues to be worked out. It seems you can only list items or keyword results, meaning you can't create the widget once to permanently showcase your items for sale no matter what week it is. There's no preview on the creation page, etc, etc.
This will probably turn out more useful six months from now, after they've been yelled at enough
