Ask your bank or credit card organization first - you'll usually be stuck with whatever hardware they permit and support...

Steve,
I currently process over the internet when I am out of the office.
As I said, a Laptop is bulky but I can slip a PDA etc into my pocket.
Mobile card processors are extremely bulky.

I'd say N810.

Your requirements are pretty modest, actually.

I'd go with either the N810, because you get the keyboard for rapid text entry and the best browser, or the N770, because the coveron/off is extremely convenient and keeps it from getting damaged --- plus, it's all of $100.

Downside of the N770 is lack of OS support and an older browser. The N800 is a viable option too, but the N810 is, for you, superior in every way --- smaller, lighter, and has the keyboard.

Blackberries sure look cool, and have a great deal of positive buzz, but I have no firsthand experience with them, sorry.

A Motorla i58 cell phone with a card reader attachment has been used for years. I used to see them used at swap meets and county fares and such.

A link I found... http://www.wirelesscity.ca/city/bins...4834-1612-1634
