Welcome to the iKey

by Andrew McCaskey
Patent lawyers at Apple are busy once again – this time with the idea that the iPhone might be very useful as a portable electronic key.

Some combination of numeric sequence, colors, icons time and accelerometer could create some pretty robust passwords. My only wonder is how that did not escape some earlier patent or some creative iPhone App developer.

It may be that Apple just has the deep pockets to keep the patent lawyers productive. In any event, it’s good to see that the marketing presentation hand wave finally has some revenue potential.
