First Direct launched the UK’s first true transactional banking app for Apple’s iPhone in early 2011. Today, two and a half years on, our recent research shows almost half (48%) of all British consumers expect to be able to bank with whatever device they like, including smartphones and tablets. Furthermore, one in six British consumers are even already interested in using Google Glass to manage their finances, without even seeing or testing a working prototype.

No, but it's relevant to the payments industry and what Bitcoin's competitors are doing. I appreciate links to that kind of article.

And yet they moved an article relevant to Bitcoin's infrastructure needs outside of a centralized company monopoly - the "Loon" project. Good luck with this one staying here.
