On the other hand, the security argument is quite strong. Improperly implemented SSL handshaking, especially when dealing with payment transactions like they do, has the potential to be devastating. But this is where interacting with the community that is making the api's would be key. There's a lot of value to be had when company and community development work together. They could contribute the ssl code themselves to the open source client projects.
Also, I'm concerned about quality of print, with the unknown of who these printers are, how do i know that it's a good quality print? Is there a guarantee?
Thank you for your honesty though... I am really excited for when we have an actual shop up!
Very good insight!
