While we’re just now struggling to get credit cards that pay wirelessly, Korea’s already moved on to the next stage and made their credit card USB-compatible. Not only can you wave this thing in front of a register like Harry Potter trying to Wingardium Leviosa Hermione’s dress, you can plug this into your computer to make online purchases as well.

Korea: not just the place where red hot world cup ladies come from anymore. [etnews via The Raw Feed]
