What are the smart cards, and what does this post mean?

Someone a whole lot smarter than I will have to answer that one

I'm curious about "Smart Cards" myself. What technology are they using? Is this somewhat like the Iraqi version of WIC cards or welfare cards?

Electronic banking, debit card like you carry now from your bank but their version if my memory serves me correctly.

I was told may look like the military ID cards carried now with the sim card grid on the back.

I too find it interesting that all they are looking to is to extend through 11/15/10.

Steve, what is your thinking on this? Why this date & why such a short span extension?

What have the smart cards been used for thus far?

Thanks

I may be wrong but I've always got the impression they're like the cards people get now instead of food stamps. Like a debit or credit card.
