The idea consists of an ID card with an AMOLED display that looks normal until you bring it up close to an RFID card reader. Then, Shazamalamadingdong! The display lights up, giving the stern border guard who's giving you the once over a 360-degree close up of your head. Then, I guess, depending on how much he likes the look of you, it's either on with the latex gloves and bend over you won't feel a thing, Mush, or thanks so much have a nice stay in our beautiful country."

Our Take: Well we put this in the same category as the full body scanners that are due to be installed in all airports. We will err on the side of caution and accept them.  They could be necessary for our personal protection.  And those that choose to bitch about everything will have more whine to go with their cheese.
