Nerone Italy Guide: Italy: Train tickets: reservation and payments

Italy: Train tickets: reservation and payments
The official website of Italian railways can be found at: Ferrovie dello Stato - Homepage. There you can browse route options and timetable as well as purchase your train ticket! However, payments by credit card are not always successful! You may find yourself struggling with registration, credit card processing and eventually failure.
A new payment option has been recently added to the site: now you can make your train ticket reservation without registering or using your credit card as you will be given the option (once in Italy) to make the payment cash at one of the many shops in Italy that are connected with the SISAL network! (most Tobacco shops)
You can also pay directly at train stations (cash or credit card), or at any ATM of UniCredit bank network (using your credit card)
To complete the payment (at the latest 24h prior time of departure of your train) you will only need the PNR code that is associated with your on-line reservation! At the moment this seems to be the easiest way to go!
A technology that would improve this system would be 2D barcodes that would be read by portable barcode-readers. After purchasing your ticket on-line you would receive the 2D bar-code as image on your cell phone. It would be enough to hand the cell phone to the employee on the train and have your payment verified. Check NeoMedia Technologies company (NeoMedia . Home) as they are working on developing this technology that could be applyed to anything! From tickets for concerts, to bus tickets, to shopping and gift certificates... and anything else you can think of! In case you loose your cell phone it would be enough to call the operator to have all of your purchases and money blocked from being spent! The system would transfer your purchases and credit to another SIM card! No more woollett or cash! No more risk of carrying cash as you would be able organize your e-Woollett from a PC or from your smart phone!

Re: NeoMedia Technologies Inc. - NEOM
An hour left & we have continuation of an up trend with a respectable gain of more than 20% on above average volume. I would be peased with a close in this area.

Re: NeoMedia Technologies Inc. - NEOM
Just some speculation around the value of NEOM & possibility of selling the company! I hope it's not sold for a period of months to allow the company to increase it's revenues.
Enjoy!

It seems I have lost track of one of my own perspectives as a result of the patent win which apparently has distracted me. If I have not mentioned the following on this board I do know I have mentioned it privately:
I have recently made mention that due to the PTO win and the flurry of activity surrounding codes Neom should now be able to move forward in selling the company. However, there is one item I am guilty of losing sight of. While Neom should certainly have a strong enough case at this juncture to warrant a sale, it still has not officially been "named" as the "clearinghouse."
Provided I am correct in believing Neom is slated to become such clearinghouse, the "official" award of that title could be worth an extra dollar or two in the till. I do not think that award will be issued prior to Q3 or Q4. Therefore, Iain may in fact be assembling the player(s) for the transaction now, however, it may not be able to be consummated until the announcement.
This is actually good news since it means that Iain will continue to build the revenue model which will only help substantiate the best value for the transaction.
All this is JMO.
Best,
Be Confident

From what I understand, Neustar will be the clearing house.

Who knows Scanbuy may be willing to settle their case against NEOM. NEOM still has a case pending against Scanbuy in NY. They may have mutually reached some kind of deal.

**NEWS!**
NeuStar Announces Global Bar Code Interoperability - Yahoo! Finance
NEWS!! Neustar Announces Global Bar Code Interoperability
03/31 11:00 CDT
3GVision, Mobile Discovery,MobileTag and NeoMedia Join Pilot Program
STERLING, Va., March 31 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- NeuStar (NYSE: NSR) today
unveiled the first successful demonstration and implementation of technology
that enables cell phones to scan and process two-dimensional bar codes -
regardless of the mobile service provider, type of bar code symbology, or
scanning technology used.
(Logo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/...10/NEUSTARLOGO )
NeuStar's pilot program is based on open standards and demonstrates
interoperability among the world's most successful bar code campaign managers,
symbologies, and code reader technologies through NeuStar's trusted third party
central clearinghouse and registry services. Announced at CTIA, the program
currently involves industry-leading companies 3GVision, Mobile Discovery,
Mobile Tag, and NeoMedia.
"Each of our current partners brings unique values and capabilities to the
market," according to Diane Strahan, vice president of Mobile Services at
NeuStar. "Consumers can simply click, send, and enjoy immediate access to cool
content. This program is a critical step toward linking various bar code
readers and players in the marketplace, and toward creating a seamless, open,
and scalable solution for brands, consumers, and mobile operators."
Unlike the linear (striped) EAN/UPC bar codes typically used for inventory
and point-of-sale transactions, the more advanced two-dimensional (2D) codes
provide mobile consumers with a "shortcut" to access rich content and helpful
information, as well as to engage in m-commerce. For mobile consumers, bar
codes offer the ability to rapidly discover, interact, and transact with brands
without typing out a web address or searching for a website.
NeuStar anticipates that two-dimensional bar codes will be of particular
relevance to advertisers and brands, which can immediately leverage their
traditional packaging and print - as well as interactive media buys - to reach
consumers on the move. More than simply providing mobile consumers with a link
to an Internet address, indirect 2D bar code systems can use location,
language, or other information shared by the consumer, allowing advertisers to
deliver dynamic, individually tailored content. Bar codes offer direct response
accountability through measurable ROI, and enable advertisers to adjust their
content based on real-time tracking of each campaign's performance.
"Whether the call to action is a short code or a bar code, NeuStar is
enabling consumers to opt in to and connect directly with their desired mobile
content and interactive experiences," continued Strahan. "The current industry
partners in this program are highly successful players in mobile marketing and
bar code scanning solutions, as well as intellectual property leaders. These
partners have the widest deployment of bar code solutions and penetration in
Japan, France, Australia, and other countries. The strength of the open
interoperable service we are demonstrating is that it provides the underlying
infrastructure needed for brands to confidently deliver a consistent,
high-quality customer experience across mobile operators for maximum reach and
return."

Nokia Introduces Nokia Point & Find, a new way to Connect With Information and Services on the go
New Platform Enables Businesses to Engage With Consumers in Real Time With Relevant Content

Nokia Introduces Nokia Point & Find, a new way to Connect With Information and Services on the go - Yahoo! Finance
SAN FRANCISCO, April 1 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Nokia (NYSE: NOK - News) introduces an innovative service concept that enables people on the move to access relevant information and services on the internet, simply by pointing their mobile phone camera at real-life objects. A beta version of Nokia Point & Find, focusing on movies, is now available in the UK and US. Capabilities will later expand into other services and countries.
"With Nokia Point & Find, businesses are able to target engaging experiences and calls-to-action to consumers. We believe that this first Nokia Point & Find-based service for movies will add something special to the cinema experience. Simply by pointing their camera phone at a poster for a new movie, people can watch the trailer, read reviews, and find the closest cinema where it is playing," said Philipp Schloter, General Manager, Nokia Point & Find.
Nokia Point & Find is an open service platform on which other companies can build innovative customized experiences to drive better engagement with potential customers. Nokia is inviting businesses, content providers and agencies to discuss how the Nokia Point & Find service could help them with specific applications, campaigns or promotional activities. Unique experiences can be created through the self-service Nokia Point & Find Management Portal, or by working with the Nokia Point & Find professional service team.
Businesses have already recognized the potential for Nokia Point & Find in their campaigns.
Casey Harwood, Senior Vice President, Digital Media at Turner Europe said: "Nokia Point & Find is an innovative new service which will enable users to point their camera phone at various Cartoon Network related objects and receive relevant show or product information direct to their handset. In an on-demand world, this technology represents an exciting development for both content providers and consumers."
"BODY WORLDS appeals to adventurous and curious people of all ages. We see Nokia Point & Find as an intriguing new way for people to find out about BODY WORLDS & The Mirror of Time at the O2. By integrating this technology with our outdoor advertising in London we have created not just another special promotion, but also a chance to experiment with something quite innovative," said Nicky Hewgill, Marketing Manager, BODY WORLDS London.
"The Nokia Point & Find service marries the digital world with the physical world in a way that actually has meaning for brands and consumers. Not only does it allow consumers to engage with brands in an innovative way but provides brands 'point and purchase' opportunities with an on-the-go audience," said Julian Pate, Client Partner, AKQA.
Nokia Point & Find uses advanced real time image processing and recognition technologies to link the user to digital content and services. It also recognizes bar codes, integrates GPS positioning technology, and supports category-specific text-entry search. When the phone is pointed at an object, Nokia Point & Find uses a variety of the phone's capabilities including the camera, internet connectivity, and GPS positioning to evaluate the object. Then, by rapidly searching through a database of virtually tagged items, the system identifies the object and returns a set of links to associated content and services.
Companies interested in using Nokia Point & Find for their own campaigns can visit NOKIA Point & Find to request further information. Nokia Point & Find's beta release is available for download into select mobile devices in the UK and US at NOKIA Point & Find as well.

Re: NEOM more Exposure!
Consolidation phase.
Two days up on heavy volume followed by two days down on lower volume. Maybe another day down followed by continued up trend or maybe tomorrow we just continue our climb!

Re: NEOM more Exposure!
Rough day! Down 15.8% on 28 million share volume. Hope we get some good news from tomorrows pre trial hearing in NY. Any indication that Scanbuy will settle could send this thing higher.
