Press Your Pin Number on the Back of Your Own Credit Card
A next-generation credit card that incorporates a 12-button keyboard, a microprocessor and an embedded alphanumeric display promises to provide unprecedented security in phone and online banking transactions.
The Credit Card Embedded Authentication Device will make its consumer debut at Cartes & IDentification in Paris November 13-15, 2007.
Hmmm…does this make any sense to you? The card will be expensive to make so who’s paying for that? But it sure does look cool!

Although the technology currently is still undoubtedly very expensive, it might still be applicable for platinum credit card with huge limits, so it can add some extra security feature and protect against theft & misuse by unauthorized parties.
