Android Stock Alerting Application

AlienHive Labs just released its first application - Stock Price Alerts.

What is Stick Price Alerts?
Stock Price Alerts is a simple and easy to use application that notifies you when a stock has hit it's configured low or high price. How you ask? After you setup your stock list (ticker, low/high prices, and enable notifications) you can enable the alerting system to automatically update your stock list. The alerting system will run in the background pulling data from the Internet. A notification will be sent once a stock has hits its low or high price.
