Depositing money by taking a photo is cool! Too bad checks are on the way out. Wonder if I could take a picture of so-and-so’s Gold Card?
I suppose it IS a good system in the event checks can’t get from A to B easily as was the case in the week after 9-11. Good stuff Russ!

@Gerald, yeah that’s kinda what Visa is going after in the other story: a micro sd card that will read the rfid chip in a credit card. Too cool! Too bad my Palm Pre doesn’t have a micro sd card slot.
