I assume that the logo is a replacement for VISA on plastic card that when added to SET certificates
could be displayed in your electronic wallet. Naah, I meant in your mobile phone that will be
the wallet.  Sooner or later...

This is the same as with everything in the computer business.  Once a word-
processing document of 100K was considered big.  Now you don't raise an
