Of course this will mean the need for cyber gripping.

Why oh why is it assumed that everyone has a mobile ? And what happens
with a mobile ticket if your battery goes flat ?

It's not much different to expecting people not to leave their wallet at
home, is it?

My wallet doesn't go flat.

Well, it does, but that'd be my fault for expending it's charge at the
bar.

Anyway if you read elsewhere on this thread it would appear that RFID-
embedded-in-mobile-shell ticketing wouldn't necessarily require the
phone to have any battery power. In a simple implementation the
phone's casing is basically acting as if it were an RFID card.

Barcode-on-mobile ticketing does however require a turned-on mobile to
work.
