  Any one realised the new ez-link card reader system? Today was on SMB123P, realised that the card reader was a bigger one and a different one. Wonder is for the next time NFC card usage too.

  It's not touch screen lol, it's like the current readers with monochrome screen. The colour graphics allows for better viewing of information when tapping in and out.

  sound abit shorter and sharper than the current readers, the number of beeps are still the same depending on which card type (e.g. concession) is used.
