Tell me you didn't read the thread without telling me you didn't read the thread...

Once again... Holding the card up to the window DOES NOT WORK in my wife's car.

I don't know if it's a weak chip or if there's some sort of tinting in the window that interferes, but it simply does not work.

Your "new technology" analogy also fails, since the mirror chip is IDENTICAL to the chip inside your card.

If they are going to phase out the current card system, fine. Then the mirror chips won't work, either.
