ALL IDX: Texas newspapers are reporting that the test of fingerprint ID use in two Texas counties yielded no benefits and did not reduce welfare fraud:

chron.com

How come it works in many other states... possibly because of the limited trial?? (welfare recipients could still go to other non-participating counties to claim duplicate benefits). Or as the article states, one agency was using the index finger and another which was being used to cross-check was using a thumb print. (Duh?)
Article states that state still plans to spend funding to implement statewide.

Brad:

Has IDX got anything going with the copy centers or AAA?
The reason why I thought about there being a market at these
places is because they do passport photos. Seems like you
could get all your ID at one place. Just a thought.

Brad;

I haven't contacted them. Maybe multiple request would garner increased detail. Knowing that Fujitsu sells IDXs' products and what with the increase in R&D, I was hoping the two were related and a new IDX product was getting to the shelf. Any way to find out from IDXs' PR firm? sorry, bad question...
