Comment on Launching Google Wallet on Sprint and working with Visa, AmEx and Discoverparent

Comments

Well you made me realise its not solving the wallet problem, as you will still need a card as many outlets won't support the transaction type. There are plenty of other reasons to carrying a wallet, security cards for example, loyalty cards.

So its definitly not solving the wallet issue.

I won't be buying into it as I leave my phone all over the place. Plus I travel abroad a lot and already deal with way more fraud that I'd like anyway. Total pain dealing with banks to get all the fraudulent transactions reversed after getting home :/ anything that automates the process for me also automates it for the bad guys, so I'll be a late adopter thats for sure.
