Amazon PayPhrase

I can't imagine this is going to fly... But Amazon is pushing it hard  
across their site.

I'd love to see the research and user testing that they did -- I mean,  
Amazon A/B tests the crap put of their stuff... so it's hard to  
imagine they're dropping this on the market w/o sufficient testing.

Anyway -- a very curious take on the ID/token idea. Works with mobile  
out of the gate at least...
