    What are some of the benefits a smart credit card will provide to consumers. If anyone has links to information on them, please post that. Thanks

    really not much. Reason to track your spending habits closer, and sell you a device that does practically nothing. :)


    Does look cool though.

    How long into the future do you think it will take for them to provide enhancements to really make the smart card the thing of the future?

    my guess is about 5-10 years we'll be using all smart. Btw, i can copy smart card data and dump it with my iso reader. how secure do you think it is?

    Are you saying you can decode all the data on the card that they claim is IMPOSSIBLE to crack? If so, what issuer's card was it, because I have been told the memory/encryption capabilities vary from card issuer to issuer.
