Here in Connecticut most of the stores, that I shop at regularly, upgraded to Verifone systems they seemed to have a lot of problems with the length of time transactions took, and now they have a sign taped over the chip reader part saying in doesn't work just swipe instead. However on a recent trip to NYC I stopped at a busy restaurant that wouldn't accept cards without a chip so they must have system that works pretty well. Some of it may be do to eliminating user error by inserting the card themselves or maybe they just swiped it anyway.
