Tech News Around The World
by Eric Hanson on January 31, 2007

While InfoWorld questions whether or not consumers will want to Tote around another device just to make sure they can bank online, I think using a smart card for authentication is a great idea - much easier than having to enter a user id and two passwords, one using a virtual keyboard, as you have to do to log on to HSBC's bank website, for example. It's not necessarily something I'd go out and buy, but if enough banks got together to promote the technology (and gave it away for free), like MasterCard is doing with the PayPass.
