The Last Frontier of credit card security

Credit card biometric authentication to lock out fraudsters.
I was staring at my laptop’s fingerprint sensor, which, of course, if one is enrolled in the enabled program, would require (my) unique fingerprint in order to access everything in the computer. And what if this is also true for credit cards? To block out fraud use and security issues? But somebody had thought about it. The last frontier of credit card security is by Anil Jain’s wanting to put fingerprint sensor in the card so that all transactions will pass through biometric authentication at checkout. Imagine a useless stolen credit card. Looking forward to 2010.
