Ideally what I'd like to see is a smart
card that holds the receipt information
electronically, (with an option to skip
a receipt, say on a business trip
not expensible, or something off the record)
and a smart card reader at home
that we can dump the receipts
to our own software/ data repository.

That way we never go to paper,
or have an electronic backup and
the place we are purchasing
from does more than just sending
the electronic money card company
the bill, we get an itemized receipt
of what we purchased, coming our
direction for what we paid for...

Even with a month or two's transactions,
it's not that much data to store
on a card/ chip in pdf or image format...
