Yup. I keep one credit card, my TV ID and a gate pass in my wallet. It's an RFID protected wallet, so, I can't just wave the wallet at the sensor.

I've launched my card out the window pulling it out of my wallet (after digging for my wallet in my back pocket) on more than one occasion...

The chip makes all of that go away...
