I bought some bluetooth serial modular. for my mini-slx9 board talk to nowaday device, (android etc) 2012-11-27 11:51 wpwrak: well.. cc usually mean 'more cost due to fraud'. so its only fair accepting them only for a surcharge. 2012-11-27 11:51 I bought there are a looot of bluetooth profiles. 2012-11-27 11:51 chip and pin still isn't universal. e.g., around here, you only have the magnet strip. a while ago, visa were foolish enough to ask for the chip. this caused retailers to fall back to fully manual entry. they dropped the charade within a few days. 2012-11-27 11:52 xiangfu: BT = complexity = job security ;-) 2012-11-27 11:52 wpwrak: atleast thats what businesses here do which i know. for one the broker access iss seriously expensive, and for the second you got no gurantee that you got your money. even if somebody was there physicly 2012-11-27 11:53 i know that its different in europe to other places. but here i dont need a cc and i dont want one. simply too broken system (which makes it expensive) 2012-11-27 11:53 roh: i know that localized solutions are popular in germany, simply because the local market is fairly large. but on an international scale, there's no way around credit cards (or paypal, if you must) 2012-11-27 11:54 i think the cc system is great 2012-11-27 11:54 wpwrak: its nothing special. just chip and pin by force. the magstripe is unused nowadays 2012-11-27 11:54 it puts the burden of keeping things safe on the companies, not on the customer 2012-11-27 11:54 oh well, not much nfc experience then I guess 2012-11-27 11:54 :-) 2012-11-27 11:54 wpwrak: why? it allows fraud and thus makes stuff more expensive for us, the customers. thats a bad system 2012-11-27 11:55 chip/pin basically moves that all to the banks. not the customer, not the retailer. 2012-11-27 11:55 fraud can be countered. it's not only a question of keeping the act of paying safe but also of tracking down the criminals 2012-11-27 11:55 to me it looks like nfc may have a breakthrough in the next few years 2012-11-27 11:55 make it decades or perhaps centuries and i may agree :) 2012-11-27 11:57 wolfspraul: i dont think so.. maybe for getting robbed 2012-11-27 11:57 roh: chip&pin hase its issues. one is global acceptance. another is that it's "too safe". so if there is an invalid transaction, the client gets screwed because it's "impossible" for a criminal to break the system. and we all know that IT is like a swiss cheese. 2012-11-27 11:57 wpwrak: as long as there is a customer or retailer the bank can blame, nothing will change. 2012-11-27 11:58 roh: see, that's the beauty of credit cards: everyone knows they're insecure. so the customer gets great protection. meanwhile, the companies have a massive incentive to do something about cutting down fraud. 2012-11-27 11:59 and since the bank is much more powerful, there needs to be a generic bias to make it work at all. 2012-11-27 11:59 wpwrak: well.. thats why retailers around here dont take CC. THEY are the ones who loose. 2012-11-27 12:01 wolfspraul: i think nfs is one of those solutions waiting for a problem. if you can provide one, nfc may be the success of your lifetime. else, join the crowd already in the tar pit :) 2012-11-27 12:01 my point isnt that the system is shit. its that the wrong ones pay for its brokenness.. the customer. that is why i find it very ok and right that there are retailers who ALSO take CC, but add a atleast 10E per invoice surcharge for CC use. 2012-11-27 12:02 wpwrak: and which of those problems wasnt already solved by atleast 2 different widely popular rf standards? 2012-11-27 12:02 roh: not even big chains ? even in argentina, the major supermarkets accept credit cards without a fuss. smaller shops don't (because they lack the terminals) or add a surcharge. 2012-11-27 12:02 nah 2012-11-27 12:02 let's just look at facts. what chips are available 2012-11-27 12:02 what devices support them, what payment systems/networks or in general 'vendors' accept them 2012-11-27 12:03 who puts marketing money behind them 2012-11-27 12:03 etc. etc. 2012-11-27 12:03 wpwrak: no. for one: every person with a bank account HAS a chip for years now, and second.. what interrest whould a retailer have? 2012-11-27 12:03 and it's a big world, if Asia leads on this (which I don't even think), then that alone will drive tech whether Europe gets it now or a few years later :-) 2012-11-27 12:03 i mean.. chip and pin is beep, type, ok, done.. 5sec. 2012-11-27 12:03 people here love to swipe some card at 7-11 etc 2012-11-27 12:03 why do something like card and autograph when it takes more time? 2012-11-27 12:04 roh: here it's sweep, beep, error code ;-) 2012-11-27 12:04 roh: they they go searching for someone who knows how to work around it (by falling back to some archaic protocol) 2012-11-27 12:04 I just noticed apple added nfc in the iphone5, that's a good indicator to take a closer look 2012-11-27 12:04 :-) 2012-11-27 12:04 or rather.. why accept a system which blames you the retailer while being obviously badly designed by a bank 2012-11-27 12:04 they get it wrong sometimes, but less so than other tech corps 2012-11-27 12:05 wolfspraul: steve jobs is dead. thus so are the visions, it seems. don't look for leadersthip there. 2012-11-27 12:05 alright then. but I try to understand nfc :-) 2012-11-27 12:05 hehe :) 2012-11-27 12:05 will pay more attention, first step is to find more chips 2012-11-27 12:06 if I can't find cheap chips, it will stop right there for me 2012-11-27 12:07 i really like cash to be fair. much more complicated to loose 2012-11-27 12:08 wpwrak: btw.. even with a chip and pin card you usually have a minimum turnover in most stores. 2012-11-27 12:08 wpwrak: because regardless of which card/system one uses.. its all more people involved who want their cut on that transaction 2012-11-27 12:11 wolfspraul: nfc is the new irda 2012-11-27 12:11 *veg* 2012-11-27 12:11 well let's see 2012-11-27 12:11 similar range and applications 2012-11-27 12:12 I think the dimensions are totally different nowadays, nfc may be in the hands of 2 billion people when irda probably never went above even 10 million 2012-11-27 12:12 I am not pushing nfc in any way, I don't care about the tech 2012-11-27 12:12 i've seen people use it to transfer a vcard once... 2 samsung phones back to back.... why they didnt just send the file via jabber which they use to chat all day long via 3g.. i dont know *g* 2012-11-27 12:12 I am just looking at the environment and see things are happening, wonder whether I can make use of it, and done :-) 2012-11-27 12:13 I was asking about nfc chips, will do some more research 2012-11-27 12:13 wolfspraul: no. nfc is in <1% of the highest end smartphones which less than 1 in 6 persons on this earth owns 2012-11-27 12:14 which makes it way worse available than something like paypal. i rather think they will be the new money than nfc 2012-11-27 12:14 roh: (cut) yeah. the terminal itself has a cost. often, after that, the differences are minor. 2012-11-27 12:14 wpwrak: the terminal is rented. from a company doing the service, which then has contracts with banks... 2012-11-27 12:15 and you only rent via your bank from that company.. so its atleast 2 or 3 parties extra on YOUR side, not involving the cc company of the holder yet ;) 2012-11-27 12:15 yes its stupid... but well.. its banks and similar ones 2012-11-27 12:15 :) 2012-11-27 12:16 wpwrak: for the congress we always have that issue. so we got some of these terminals and or an online broker 2012-11-27 12:16 wpwrak: bottomline.. its REALLY expensive.. hundredts of euros per month extra only for getting access (no transactions yet) 2012-11-27 12:16 thus we add those to the CC prices. 2012-11-27 12:18 actually I may have been wrong about the iphone5 and nfc - not sure whether it has is or not... for completeness 2012-11-27 12:24 roh: bah, considering the money you're moving that's nothing :) 2012-11-27 12:25 wpwrak: there is also a per transaction fee i think. well. its still not fair to ask people not using a broken system to pay for it. so its only the CC users. 2012-11-27 12:32 Jurting_pc2 has quit [Ping timeout: 244 seconds] 2012-11-27 12:34 mth_ has joined #qi-hardware 2012-11-27 12:34 mth has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer] 2012-11-27 12:38 Jurting_pc2 has joined #qi-hardware 2012-11-27 12:40 LunaVorax has joined #qi-hardware 2012-11-27 12:55 LunaVorax has quit [Ping timeout: 256 seconds] 2012-11-27 13:20 panda|x201 has joined #qi-hardware 2012-11-27 13:26 panda|x201 has quit [Ping timeout: 245 seconds] 2012-11-27 13:26 nerd has quit [Quit: WeeChat 0.3.9.2] 2012-11-27 13:26 nerd has joined #qi-hardware 2012-11-27 13:38 wpwrak: perhaps the lack of BT security is not a problem if think is a free on the air protocol :-) 2012-11-27 13:38 but this had been long been shiped in phones 2012-11-27 13:38 my old se have BT and irda ;) 2012-11-27 13:39 panda|x201 has joined #qi-hardware 2012-11-27 13:46 panda|x201 has quit [Ping timeout: 245 seconds] 2012-11-27 13:47 kristianpaul, any advices on bluetooth chip/modular/profiles?
