*"SAN FRANCISCO — Cash moved one small step nearer to its deathbed with the
announcement on Wednesday that Square, the mobile payments start-up, would
form a partnership with the
Starbucks<http://topics.nytimes.com/top/news/business/companies/starbucks_corporation/index.html?inline=nyt-org>Coffee
Company"
*

I'm sure Roger especially will have some comments about this part :
*
"But when Starbucks uses Square’s full GPS technology, the customer’s phone
will automatically notify the store that the customer has entered, and the
customer’s name and photo will pop up on the cashier’s screen. The customer
will give the merchant his or her name, Starbucks will match the photo and
the payment will be complete."*
