One what? One person who's actually undergone multiple type 1 PCI audits? :) Encrypting the credit card is the smallest part of it (although the number of people who actually pull off the encrypted key, key pieces kept by different people

I respectfully suggest that you undergo a 3rd party Type 1 PCI audit.... The amount of legal and policy documentation you are required to have is by itself a massive undertaking. The 3rd party audit will cost $150,000-$300,000 and a huge a

Agreed with the facebook integration. I generally dislike Facebook but this is a great way to get more users for this type of service.

What about a large number of smaller companies who employ the same in total? Or better yet, let companies fail, let the citizens keep their tax money to spend in the economy as they see fit.

On the iPad, for the first time with an Apple device, I can easily see myself spending more than the HW purchase cost on apps/content over the next 12 months. Obviously Apple only gets a % of that, but still it's not insignificant and it's

I don't have a Kindle for comparison however I've had no issues reading books on my iPad even in direct sun out on my deck. Sure if you angle it JUST wrong, it's useless, but I haven't had a problem finding a comfortable reading angle. I'v

The big numbers will be the ongoing revenue stream of apps and content delivered via those million devices. I think everyone will be surprised at the average monthly spend through the app store/content stores.

I guess it depends on what porn exactly. I know a few people in the biz, both the indie side and the pro side, and they have a ton of fun.... I'm sure there's some folks who aren't, but I don't watch that stuff:)

Having played with my friend's iPad a bunch today I am extremely impressed. I can't wait for my 3g one to arrive. He put it best by saying: "It's not a single big WOW thing, it's that the whole iPad feels exactly right. Everything you do

Absolutely. Please be very careful who you trust when adding 3rd party JavaScript. They don't even have to malicious themselves, just get hacked on their end, and then all of their customers are compromised as well...

I'm certainly not suggesting they owe me/anyone else anything! I was just curious what their rationale was for holding back. Maybe it's a really good reason I hadn't considered.

How come? Honest question. Would making that information available hurt your business somehow? Don't get me wrong, my typical impulse is to play numbers very close to the vest, but I'm realizing more and more that the real risk of transp

Don't worry about karma. Post replies that you think give something to the discussion. Many of your comments seem to be one-liners (but not funny ones) which I think is the issue. I don't see hardly any comments from you that teach me any
