There won't be shortages of us, too many do not have an iTunes account w/ a cc attached, or choose to use another card.

At my Apple Store, any time I go in, it looks like the app hasn't caught on too much.  I haven't noticed a drop in employees.

At the Apple Store, there is the Apple Store app. This allows the customer to purchase their items as long as they are under $100 and have no serial number.

When a customer uses this application, it latches onto our store Wi-Fi and it lets the customer scan the item they want to purchase, then the customer enters iTunes password and the CV code of the credit card tied to it. Pro; the customer gets what they want quickly and they can be on their way. Con; it does call into question the matter of anti-theft.

So far, it does not seem to be that much of a problem. It seems that most people are basically honest.

You carry bags in your cart.
Grab item. Scan item. Bag item.

By the time you get to the check-out, everything IS bagged, and only needs
to be paid for.
