Thank you Herve, I'm new to angular so i'm leaning something everyday :D. Just one question though. Since the "customer" variable may not be set when the view is rendered so the {{}} is the mechanism that angular is asynchonously watch the var and render when the value is available? If it is then why or when should we use async pipe?
