Well cracking the bank application is not really in the user's interests
in this case. My view is, that when the banking application delivery
platform becomes cheap enough (say $50 or less), it will make sense for
the bank to provide a complete ATM system (sans cash) to each user.
The personal ATM appliance should be difficult to tamper with and should
accept only a single set of accounts (so that stolen pin numbers are not
portable)...
