If everything works out fine, you'll have it by Christmas. Any reason no one's been talking about this? This is very good news, right? I suppose there's a reason there aren't more details, but I can't wait till we hear more.

I'm wondering if these cards will be available in the US or if they will only be sold (at least initially) in Europe? Any kind of region restrictions?

Andreas -- "We show that all proposed quantum bit commitment schemes are insecure because the sender, Alice, can almost always cheat successfully by using an Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen type of attack and delaying her measurement until she opens her commitment."
