I'm usually pretty up on technology, but I feel weird about keeping all my credit card info on my phone....thoughts?

Having never gone through the process, I can't imagine what the advantage is waving a phone vs. swiping a credit card. For those that have their cellphone glued to their hand, it may be helpful. But taking the phone out of one's purse or pocket, out of a case, turning it on, pushing a few buttons to confirm a purchase seems like a lot more effort than opening the wallet, taking out a credit card, and swiping the card through the reader.

That's what I was thinking too. Maybe less to carry around will be the feature that tips the scale in favor of using an ewallet concept but until vendors catch on, a person is at risk of not being able to use his credit card. This is one if the reasons people don't solely use American Express. Not all vendors accept it.
