chaosmachine Posted September 24, 2009 Report Share Posted September 24, 2009 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vrxZ7gR1QNU The scanner seems kind of dumb (where is the bluetooth?), but paying via a smart phone is definitely a nice idea. You could keep digital receipts to track all your purchases, etc. Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Hide all signatures WATMM Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/49205-a-little-chunk-of-the-future/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

chenGOD Posted September 24, 2009 Report Share Posted September 24, 2009 not only japan. and seriously if korea (non-axis-of-evil korea) has had the ability to pay for everything by phone for at least 4 years, where the fuck has the states been? I mean you already touched on it, why the fuck do they have to use a scanner. And the idea that you have to load money separately on to the phone app. I don't see it is having much more potential than the way things are in Japan/Korea...where phones can basically be used as credit/debit cards.

FLA FUR BIS FLE Posted September 24, 2009 Report Share Posted September 24, 2009 I like the idea of a digital receipt....but why did she hand him a paper receipt as well? Just seems tedious as fuck. I have a feeling that the future is going to be a bit more Fallout 3 tho.

Bubba69 Posted September 24, 2009 Report Share Posted September 24, 2009 But wait, really? There solution involves scanning a barcode printed on the screen of the phone. Couldn't they figure out something more clever than that? I don't know it just seems kind of silly to me.

chenGOD Posted September 24, 2009 Report Share Posted September 24, 2009 yeah chaqosmachine touched on that with the whole need for a scanner. I didn't mean to be a downer in this thread, I was tired as hell last night and this just seemed silly. But it'll be a big seller, because of the parties involved. It's just ridiculous that people in North America get shafted like this when it comes to mobile IT.
