Unfortunately, Square is a bit late to this game (though not out of it yet); while at an Apple store a couple of months ago, I noticed that they were selling credit card readers for the iPhone already, in nice Apple-like packaging. It was probably Verifone's device [1]. I had a client that was interested in this for the various trade events she had, but Square never followed up and seemed to be turning into vaporware. When I saw these other devices on the shelf, I recommended them to her. Square certainly doesn't have a lot of room for not getting it right the first time at this point, unfortunately; I really dislike Verifone and would like to see someone eat their lunch, but they've had a several-months head-start.
