Flash memory stuff

are you saying this is some kind of hardware implemented, say dongle or flash memory card -- like a usb key thingy) that you plug into your computer and it manages your privacy stuff (like credit cards, passwords, etc.) and has nothing to do with the operating system?

That sounds pretty interesting, but I still don't see how it would make money.

Arre you saying this little device will be like some bank that operates by itself, and that everytime you buy something it butts in and does the transaction???

If it's a coprocessor thingy then it's stuck on the motherboard and what's the big difference???

If the hardware dongle company gets commissions for transactions (even pennies) I guess it would make money if the process was accepted by the majority.

Sounds wierd, but possible.

However, what's to say that someone figures out how to make calls to that chip and download all the info???
