Re the ticketing - the crucial change will be the acceptance of
Contactless Payment Cards (CPCs - e.g. Visa payWave) on the Tube. This
will I think lead to a fairly revolutionary change (with the
significant caveat that many passengers won't have access to a CPC),
but it'll only really make sense if NR in London also accepts CPCs in
the same manner.

Do you happen to know if they've started accepting foreign issued and
prepaid CPCs yet? This is of course of some importance to tourists,
especially since the move towards prepaid card for the issuing of
foreign exchange.
