This module is a good alternative to Net::Amazon, for this specific task.
Unlike Net::Amazon, which is limited up to 50 wishList entries,
WWW::Amazon::Wishlist, exhaust all its content.
This can be useful for web applications that uses Amazon rich database,
to play around with Amazon hack ;-)
Caveat: as mentioned by the author this module is sensitive to HTML template changes.
Below is the sample code to extract wishlist:
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use WWW::Amazon::Wishlist qw(get_list COM); #version 1.4
my $my_amazon_com_id = '26Y2G652628T3';
#Your id can be found in your wishlist's (compact version) URL
my @wishlist = get_list ($my_amazon_com_id, COM);
for ( 0 .. $#wishlist )
{
print"[$_] Title :",$wishlist[$_]->{title},"\n",
" Author:",$wishlist[$_]->{author},"\n",
" ASIN :",$wishlist[$_]->{asin},"\n",
" Price :",$wishlist[$_]->{price},"\n",
$wishlist[$_]->{type},"\n";
}

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
