michaelmurfy: Seems interesting but doesn't support EMV, which means only one of my cards will work ;)
khull: As far as I know if you swipe a chip card on a terminal that supports EMV chips, it will ask the operator to insert the card instead and hence this will fail on this. The swipe process is a backup I case it has problems reading the chip. Eftpos cards will probably work. The US financial sector is incredibly backwards with most cards still relying on the magnetic strip.
Having said that, we are seeing more NFC terminals of which this card will not take advantage of
