i find this whole in-screen fingerprint reader trend to be pretty funny. isn't glass excellent for capturing fingerprints? i suspect biometrics like fingerprints may play a role in the future, but the role they would play is more convenience in cases where the device knows its in a trusted environment. (that is, there will be more attention on devices tracking whether they've been separated from their owner, or if their owner is not behaving like their owner, and if so, requiring additional challenge) either that or we'll all be carrying keys. there are some cool wearables i've seen out there that i think talk nfc.
