A New Kind Of Security

Communications News, March, 1999

Ever left a credit card in an ATM machine? Left one at a restaurant? How about at the self-service pay-at-the-pump gas station? The "Beeping Wallet," with a small microchip and a standard, replaceable watch battery, alerts its owner every 20 seconds that a credit card has been removed and shuts off automatically after five minutes.

At www.beepingwallet.com, men and women can find a range of styles in Kopel, Inc.'s fine leather selections; the wallets also can withstand extreme temperatures and pressure. A passport wallet is available to protect international travelers from the loss or theft.
