This is a touch id debu, we ahve to be convinced of its reliability. The implications of it getting it wrong are dire. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ricardo Walker" <rwalker296@xxxxxxxxx> To: <accessible-ios@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, September 11, 2013 8:11 AM Subject: accessible-iOS Re: Keynote so far Hi Ibrahim, I think your giving touch ID to little credit. I admit, it doesn’t have that instant wow! factor that Siri did. Your not going to be demonstrating touch ID to all your family and friends for a week after you get the phone like Siri. haha. But, I bet more people will use touch ID more frequently than they will use Siri. And I would be shocked if in the months to come, maybe a year at most, if we don’t see touch ID used for authentication for mobile purchases in stores and such. Maybe even getting into ones car. There are a dozen different uses I can think of off the top of my head for Touch ID.
