wouldn't it take at least a day for the charge to show up, and thus a day for it to hit blippy? wouldn't most people be talking about their new shiny purchase way before that?

you just bought an ipad, you get it home and play with it, send out twitter messages and facebook posts, and then the next day blippy tells everyone you bought it?

Actually the charge takes place hours later, but I think the authorization happens immediately.

they support most credit card/debit cards already though

> "you're supposed to get a card specifically for Blippy purchases".

Ah. Now I get it.
