Link to IDX announcement of 100K shipped scanners:

Although there is no breakdown in the resale channels, Compaq is by far the most significant. As you should be able to see by minimal DD, as far as the fingerprint bio-ID computer security market goes, IDX has a product, an OEM, and sales. Or it's just a complex scam, as Wexler claims (although with all his snoring on this thread, I think that's true only in his dreams).

Compaq's adoption of fingerprint biometrics was announced a year ago:

(Note: Identicator Technology, which is referenced as the biometrics partner in the PR above, was acquired by Identix earlier this year.)

Somebody wake up Wexler and tell him.
