Anonymous auction never works, that's why you need to build up some credential through ebay. I like the idea of smart card, which should be able to transact small amount of money over the net anonymously. These will encourage illegal selling though, and then FBI start selling "Un-registered Photoshop CD!" to trap you.... But it's a good thing nevertheless, much better than MSN passport. Consider this scenerio: You buy a smart card from the newsstand, gets a unique number on the card, say A13764789756, and then you slice you card in the smartcard reader, tell you computer you wish to send 10 dollars to another smartcard, that has a id C76468976432, varla, the guy gets the money and send you his used "The Net" poster. Note I don't want the smartcard carrys password and personal id, it's purely anonymous with open source smartcard driver. That's good enough. That isn't much advcantage to transfer large amount of money in high speed for Joe Sixpact. You want to kick your tire before making the dicision anyway. CY

P.S. Final Fantasy the movie is coming, it's got great voice cast back it up, you can hope in your lifetime there's a good video game movie.
CY, who is not hitting the preview button, so you can nitpick more.
Considering the Sony track records, it will just make a player so samll than make all you cd-r zealots SICK. If you think carrying a cd-r/mp player and a big stack of CD is cool, then you might as well get a Newton instead of a Visor.
Note that I'm not preaching memory stick, but it does has its advantage, size. And Sony can easily make a player as small as my aiwa am/fm receiver, which is about 1 X 3 X 5 cm, and run weeks on a AAA battery.
