Could This Really Happen?

it appears that you can with some telephones,

turn them on with your finger print, so I guess you would be linked to that telephone anywhere in the world so that anyone with the technology could follow your every move complete with every personal detail taken from the telephone, leaving that to one side could this new innovation for private telephones start of a new wave of finger cutting muggings? still I suppose the good news if this happens is that their are no iris eye detection on switches on telephones, yet, of course if you want one in pink have a look at Pablo Stanley's page,

now what was the name of that book? oh yes, The Country of the Blind by H.G. Wells, suggested reading if iris operated telephones come to town!
