Hi Kevin,

I agree with you regarding Chip and Pin, I much prefer it.  However, speech
could come from any number of places.  How 'bout your Talks-enabled mobile
phone?  Imagine having a Bluetooth transmitter on the terminal, which sent
the information directly to your phone?  Talks talking to you in an
earpiece?  I don't know whether it is going to ever happen, but this would
be by no means technologically impossible.  And you always carry your phone
around.  Forget special boxes, I think this would be the way to go.

All the best

hi, and of course this little box will be free? ... not! not too mention
another thing to carry around with us. and what would happen if you lost
this box? or it developed a fault? or for some reason it wouldn't work and
you had a queue of 20 people behind you? you'd have to ask the cashier to
help which you can do already for free! in other words, you'd be back to
square one anyway, i really don't see why people have a problem with asking
for help when it's required!if anything it's easier with chip and pin. no
problem with having to ask where the line is, double checking to make sure
your in the right place, hoping that the pen works first time and that your
signatures readable etc etc.
it doesn't matter what technology is developed, or what improvement are made
to chip and pin, not everyone will agree with it. i for one aprove of it and
it's just a pity it took so long to come about. good riddance to the pen!
smile.
