A nice puff piece but it steers clear of well know, if not respected, prognosticators that poo-poo any near-term potential for micro-payments. Conspicuously absent is e-gold which predates all of the listed vendors, does a daily average of $3 million in transactions, relatively simple to use, requires no special end-user software and internally cost effective enough to handle payments less than $0.01.
