Just because you slap an ‘i’ before a descriptor doesn’t guarantee that it will make that product a success, just take the iWallet hard case, for instance. Although an interesting innovation, the companies leading statement already puts me on guard, “Nobody can open. Nobody can access. Only one fingerprint.”
Ok, that’s all fine and dandy, until I lose my iWallet hard case. Right away, I forsake any chance that a Good Samaritan will return it, which happens more often than not.
This is a great concept, I simply feel that it requires some more revisions. Equipped with bluetooth technology and a biometric fingerprint reader, it will definitely keep those sticky fingers away.
