I would like to add, for those not trusting the iris unlock, It also has handwritten signature based authentication.

it would be impossible for someone to have the same eyes.
BioWallet and Shopsavy are 2 programs that are a must to have.

But it's important (to me) to note, it's not a "retinal scan". The retina is on the back of your eye, and a retinal scan involves crazy magnification and a LOT of light illuminating the back of your eye, and mapping out the blood vessels in it. This program is simply looking at your iris (the colored part of your eye). So, no doubt someone could unlock your phone with a picture of your eye. Still cool, and still a form of biometrics, but it has nothing to do with the retina.

Wouldn't they need a rather high quality printed photo of your eye for that to work?

Depends on the algorithm that reads it, but no...I wouldn't think it would need to be that great. Probably even a good drawing could do it if it's looking for patterns. Anyway, that wasn't the point of my post, to point out a weakness. Just clarifying that it's not a retinal scan.
