hey cyggie,
thanks for the feedback. to address your points:
Scheduling - yes we totally agree scheduling is a critical feature and it's at the top of http://features.auctomatic.com and we'll be working on it asap. We've found that powersellers are still happy to test out the beta and give us really useful feedback without it - that was the purpose of the first beta launch so it's not been a problem.
Inventory management - there's nothing tying inventory in the app to eBay specifically. It just happens that eBay is the first platform we're supporting but we'll be offering multiple channel support as soon as the core ebay product is ready. We'll also be tying the inventory into a backend accounts package like Quickbooks to provide a one-stop shop system for complete inventory control.
Please let me know if there's any other feedback you have - it's exactly to hear this that we launched the beta so it's much appreciated. If you have specific feature requests please feel free to submit and/or vote at http://features.auctomatic.com

tried it during the beta phase, didn't find it to do anything special. i have about 10 items to sell so i tried them again, and again, i find this site kind of pointless.
Congrats!!
Scheduling: Without basic feature like scheduling, I CAN'T even test them out. Most "power seller" sell the same items over and over, so it doesn't matter how much I love the interface, if I have to sit there manually launching the listings myself, it's just not going to work...
Inventory management: The idea is nice, but guess what... I'd say 80% of the successful eBay seller will branch out to other platform like amazon & their own site. If you're only monitoring my eBay inventory, it's pretty much pointless... because the idea behind monitoring inventory level for eBay seller is so they don't over list and piss off their buyers, but unless it's synced up with my other selling platform, it's not going to do me any good...
