Cellphone-as-Ticket or Tracking Device
My spider-sense is tingling--my cellphone is becoming a homing device--major airlines are considering a method where passengers receive as a text message/ticket which can then be read directly at the airport. endgadet

In Japan you can swipe your phone to make payments.
Mobile FeliCa is a modification of FeliCa for use in mobile phones by FeliCa Networks, a subsidiary company of both DoCoMo and Sony. NTT DoCoMo has developed a wallet phone concept based on Mobile FeliCa and has developed a wide network of partnerships and business models. au and Vodafone Japan have also licensed mobile FeliCa from FeliCa Networks.
The wallet phone developed by NTT DoCoMo, called the Osaifu Keitai (おサイフケータイ, Osaifu Keitai?), was introduced in July of 2004 and later licensed to Vodafone and au, which introduced the product under the same name. Using Osaifu Keitai, multiple FeliCa systems (such as Suica and Edy) can be accessed from a single mobile phone. On January 28, 2006, au introduced Mobile Suica which is used primarily on the railway networks owned by JR East.

Liberty Bell, you are an inbecile. You don't know what you are asking for. Your just crying to be plugged into the matrix. Give me the old landline any day.
