My University (The University of Kentucky) actually just implemented this this year. We scan the codes and we can either go to a webpage or download an app that has the GPS location of the buses with ETA. Pretty cool, actually.

There's a project here in my town by a couple of my fellow engineering students working on a related idea they're calling awesometouch. They've installed a few in our city already as far as I know.
I don't believe they're running Android, and the machines are pretty special purpose, but still similar in concept as far as huge touchscreens go: http://awesometouch.org/
I've got the 32bit version and trying to get it to run in VB. It's installing right now...
I miss going to class with a floppy and knowing it was corrupted, get an extension on the assignment. I am only 20... are there really computer users out there unfamiliar with floppies? I keep 5.25" drives around for fun and I still have Windows 95 on 3.25"ers :)
They allow redownload. How nice... I got burned by the removal of this in the iTunes app store when upgrading my iPad failed.
That would be cool, seeing as one is headed to my ZIP and I'm a 45 minute drive from the louisville ups hub...
I dont think he is stressing the ease of doing this with credit card numbers. The sample space he is suggesting generating is far too large... You can usually identify the first several digits simply by the issuing organization, as they all use standardized numbers, the remaining digits must pass a certain checksum algorithm. So really generating a bunch of valid cc numbers is quite trivial. Matching exp dates with numbers and ccv numbers.. Different story.
But i wonder what the limits to effectiveness is on this attack. I usually randomly swirl around with a smear tool to blur out things...
Also, as far as your input filtering goes, I enjoy the 2001: responses. But you're not picking up extra "$" characters for it. It gives me an answer for "$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$4" and "$$$$$$4$$$$$$" and "$$$44$$$4$4$", for example.
On Chrome/Linux it seems that when I make the luminosity go to 0 (that is, solid black), I lose all readability half of the text...
Nice, but still not as feature rich as http://www.timetableapp.com/
just for fun i went there on my ipad and it also supports multitouch... mmm, a dozen of these suckers... so relaxing, reminds me of a simpler day...
To which I ask you to check out Objective-J.
Marketplace does have a "Top Paid" and "Top Free" section for each genre similar to the App Store.
Most of the apps in App Store are crapware too
Apple gets a revenue from iAds as well. Notice that most of the Apps in App Store that are free are ad supported?
(I don't say this as a troll baiter, I own an iPad and an Android phone and love both equally)
I'm just wanting hulu. Hulu+ is a joke.
