god this will be used to skim credit card numbers and the like(don't question that because it will be sued for that purpose)....hey there's an app for that :) . but seriously people how dumb do you have to b to not realize any person with 20 bucks and the jail broken iphone momma bought em can now take all ur nice credit card information down. i mean shit lets add an rfid reader while we're at it and just make it a thiefs dream phone.
@hexideciml sure because, according to you, no mobile credit card reader has existed before this. Specially on that easy to hack 15-year old legacy platform called WinMo. Apparently 'tards like yourself have never seen one of these in your life:
ughh u fail to see the point. how many teenagers 15 yrs ago had WinMo phones or clel phones in general? Todays market is msot definetly different than lets say 10 and 15 yrs ago. what I'm saying is that with the overwhelming saturation of mobile phones in the US being iphone( and im assuming this will work with an ipod touch?) there is much more a likely hood of some dumb/curious/asshole teenager will use their phone for skimming.
winmo phones and C&C devices liek you mentioned didnt and dont really cater to annoying teenagers.
yes mobile credit card readers existed and they are very easy to obtain but this is much more concealable given it is an attachment for something many people own. the ability to obtain the info easily has increased
The Galaxy Tab 10.1, much like its Limited Edition sibling that we reviewed last month, is ever-so-slightly thinner than the iPad 2, a slate that most sane individuals (and competitors, for that matter) would confess is the market leader today.

What are you going to do next? accuse Apple fans of claiming Apple invented card readers?
