Looking for a useful gadget as a Christmas’ present? Why not consider the Sony’s PaSoRi, a contactless IC card reader cum writer, that allows you to top-up your ez-link card online from the comfort and convenience of your home or office.This white and light weight gadget is easy to use and connect easily to personal computers or laptops via Universal Serial Board (commonly known as USB). Best of all, it is about the size of a credit card and easily portable. You just have to log into www.ezlink.com.sg/, and through the Sony PaSoRi, top-up their EZ-link cards using the VISA Credit or Debit Cards. You can also view your previous transactions and safely and securely purchase goods online.
The only drawback for having this convenience – a small fee will be charged, just like when you purchase your movie tickets online. Another drawback for the gadget is that it currently only cater to those who do not have a credit or debit cards.
The Sony PaSoRi reader / writer is priced at S$49 and is available at Sony Gallery stores and major electronic shops, such as Best Denki, in Singapore.
