Kelly's link has the most info, therefor best.

There is one bug in the system: Sometimes, while trying to use a finger to authenticate an online purchase, the phone asks for a password. Apple says it expects to fix this bug very quickly.


Again I hope they give the user power over this. I think personally I would like both fingerprint and a pin # to make purchases or access my bank accounts. I'm paranoid I guess.
