<DIV>Your explanation makes perfect sense to me. I have noticed that, on
those occasions when I decide to extend my stay for a day or so, if I don't have
the key updated, it won't open the door. I always figured that in itself
was a good safety factor.</DIV>

<DIV>Being in the security / access control systems business, I feel the
need to respond to this. Yes, it's all hype. The programming on the
cards is nothing more than an access code and expiration date. The
reader in the door opens the lock based on this, and if there is any
other validation done on the system (i.e. charges to a room, credit
approval, age verification, etc.) the reader transmits the info back to
the controller card which in turn sends it to a computer system for
validation. The info contained on the card itself is pretty much
useless.</DIV>

<DIV>Now as far as the shower cameras, well, THAT'S a different story!

<DIV>I don't understand why there should be any personal
information on that card. It only needs to open the door.
That's it. </DIV>
