The really cool thing about iTunes..

[NewsBot]

.. is that the music/movies are pretty much irrelevant in terms of what it provides, now that you can buy iTunes stuff via a Touch or iPhone, Forbes thinks Apple will be going for cardless/cashless payments at Starbucks (my worst nightmare, I'll be broke before the end of the year). I guess they could stretch this ever further, public transport would be my personal fave - no more arguing with the bus driver ..

 

So that makes, movies, music, games, iPhone apps, and coffee. I wonder if they do take this approach, how far they could take it given that several use cases for Bluetooth always seem to be focussed on cardless/cashless payment and 'preference' info. *Whilst BT is obviously capable the device that is prevalent enough always seems to be missing.

 

 

Of course it isn't without its downside
