Scriber, only if you plan on using that one credit card

The article didn't come out and say it but it implied that the cell phone would only act as a single credit card so people will still need to carry the rest of them or more cell phones.  =)

"Dude, why do you have 6 cell phones?"

"Visa, MasterCard, Discover, JC Penny, Chevron, Sears, and WalMart," he answered pointing to each cell phone in turn.

Ariala, I suppose if I could use my cell phone as a debit card,
I probably would.  The article said that small purchases would be done just about automatically (just from hit okay with the phone in proximity) and larger purchases would require a PIN.

That's funny about one more card breaking the camel's back. I guess
a one purpose item (like a cell phone) makes it convenient.
