In the Northeast, at least, they are starting to use a device they are calling a "Ziosk" (probably the brand name). It is a table top credit card scanner that allows the customer to process their own bill. You can even include tips. Card never leaves your possession. I have seen them in Mass, Maine and Connecticut so far. I hope they gain nationwide use. It will reduce fraud in restaurants to almost nothing.
