Coin
Just came across this. Has anyone seen something like it? Seems like an awesome idea, I just don't know if it's been done before

I want one
yes please...
Anybody pre ordered? its there for the taking $55....and nice concept though I am still trying to wrap my head around how the tech works...so basically the sweet fat family guy in the video swips your card, scans it and now you have the card info in the coin app...is that all it takes to replicate your card info...doesn't it still have some security.
fucking genius
I predict all payments will be done via NFC in your cellphone, like Google wallet. Why buy a Coin?
Probably eventually, but when?
I'd imagine much sooner rather than later. Payment start-ups are all the rage in the Valley.
How will this thing function in the world of chip n pin?
Yea, but how will people know how much prestige I have if I don't have my AMEX Black.
That security segment was the dumbest thing I've ever seen. A lot of people don't have smartphones, and a lot of people don't leave the bluetooth setting on, because it kills battery.
Anybody can just go through your card and write down all your cc numbers. A simple solution is to enter a PIN before being able to access the multiple cc numbers. Fucking idiot tech hippies.
Except it doesn't display the whole CC #
I'm curious if there's a way to de-activate the Coin, so that if lost/stolen, you don't have to call the cc companies.
Seriously though, there is a lot of unnecessary technology involved, and a PIN or fingerprint scanner would eliminate every fear of losing your wallet or the card itself.
I can see this getting you laid.
I ordered one just for the hell of it. It will be a least a few years before NFC technology makes credit cards completely obsolete
Let us know how it works, looks like a really cool device
EDIT: whoops, looks like 2014 release, guess we'll be waiting a while
Meh, what happened to cash?
