Looking For: Unlock phone with Fingerprint

[dgreen1]

So I suppose this has been covered already but instead of using numbers to unlock our phones is there a way we can use our fingerprint to do this?

[ou2mame]

there's no fingerprint scanner..

[highlife22]

There's no scanner period lol. If anything it would have to be a pressure lock measuring certain parts of your print that hit the screen or just a certain amount of pressure period that is recognized to open the phone.

I think we are a ways off yet from a htc scan touch device at least on the general public side of life

[ou2mame]

the technology is here, but the demand isn't high enough to include something like that in a device that will reach so many people. it would definitely be cool though.

lol that sounds kool though... but as said above, the touch screen on the diamond/pro don't have the capability to use such pressure measuring techniques

i know the diamond is expensive but...

You are correct. The hTC Shift is a UMPC that has a built-in fingerprint scanner.
