Depending on what kind of card you're interacting with, and the
operations you plan on doing, there may be serious *privacy* and/or
*security* issues, doing all of this over the Net.. I'd think it would

locally and send only the relevant data over the Net?

Also, this thread is going pretty much off-topic, here, I think..
