New passport card technology approved by State Dept.

According to a story on MSNBC, new passport card technology that will allow information on the card to be read from a distance of about 20 feet was passed by the State Dept.

These passport cards are different from passports. They are for frequent border crossing Americans who travel to Canada, Mexico, Bermuda and the Caribbean. They are supposed to be smaller and more convenient than the traditional passport.
