EasyCard Now Works at 7-Eleven, FamilyMart, Hi-Life, and Other Convenience Stores!

On April 1st, when I woke up, I had totally forgotten it was April Fools’ Day, because that day there was something more important to me: I had a date… oops, typo! Actually, April 1st was the first day EasyCard could be used at the four major convenience stores (7-Eleven, FamilyMart, Hi-Life, and one more I can’t remember = =). I had been waiting for this day since the Lunar New Year, because I don’t like carrying a bunch of cards around: EasyCard, iCash, bank card, ID card, phone card… The weight of the cards alone is equal to two iPod Touches! Now I can combine my EasyCard and iCash with my wallet (which I mostly use at convenience stores), so my whole pocket is free. If I really need cash, I can just withdraw it with my bank card (though the most convenient option is a stored-value credit card, which is basically an e-wallet). Right now I’m trying to combine my EasyCard, my iPod Touch, and my library card. Maybe after the Basic Competence Test (the high school entrance exam), there will be a service that converts an iPod Touch into an EasyCard phone~~~ ...
