nicely done, romz. Time to find some new goodies to play with now. I completely agree with you about the credit card thing.. ..mm..just thinking..imagine, if you will...kiosks statigially placed in and around the grounds during the Olympics in Australia..walk up...slide the ATM card..bet on a tennis match...You WIN! Winnings are automatically credited back to your acct. Aussie govt takes the taxes immediatly, if appropriate..works for me. Sooner or later, the bible thumping MORONS who run this country of ours and constantly try and legislate THEIR morality, will open their eyes and see that...ohmygod... PEOPLE GAMBLE. DUH. Think about how much tax revenue could be generated for the US if you could go to your local sports bar and bet on a Bulls game...you win, they get their taxes up front, you get the rest. I'd do it in a heartbeat. ...climbing down off the soapbox now... :>)

you mean we've all been waiting for a piece of hardware to swipe our ATM cards through and allow possible interceptions of the card info and our pin numbers??? wow...it all seems to fit in now.... at least with the credit card, which like the stores of today, they're kept on a server and you only need to enter once per retail location. AND...if the card gets lifted the issuer of the card takes action and you're not liable. get it??? you have no recourse on stolen ATM information. this idea is so dumb...
