Hi Keith, As Shai and Ricardo pointed out, this will most likely be something you can turn off, but you can also still use a passcode, in fact, I assume that if you enable it you will most definitely also have to set a passcode since no fingerprint reader is 100% accurate. Also, what if you want to use a touch screen friendly glove in colder climates, you may then choose to type in the code rather than to take off the glove to use the fingerprint sensor.
