Callout fails during a trigger

Hi,

I'm using triggers to call a Web Service to lookup an address every time the address changes, but I get the error:

System.CalloutException Callout from triggers are currently not supported.(line 124)

Line 124 is sending the HttpRequest. Is there a work-around?

You can use a @future method to retrieve the data later. As it says, you can't use callouts during a trigger.
