    That’s too bad. It’s the one thing I really enjoyed from shopping Whole Foods, they are taking away. The checkout experience with simply scanning palm to apply discounts, pay and just walk away has been very seamless, especially compared to the super slow Safeway self checkout.

    It was found that hardly 2 percent of the people who shop use One Palm. Not worth maintaining and upgrading technologies that are not actively being used.

    Aw ... it was really nice at Whole Paycheck, I'm going to miss it.

    Any guesses as to why? Unlike Google Maps Timeline data being subpoenaed, I can't see what LE could use with this (since they have other ways to determine you were at a store), so that can't(?) be the reason why.

    Oh wait- was this available in the EU?
