In testing Verifone Pinpad 1000se device, I think we have found a bug
as it relates to POS for .NET.
It seems that trying to use an "Accountnumber" value that is exactly
16 digits will cause the device to not be released after the dataevent
and it locks up the device. Using 14 or 15 digits works ok. It is a
very odd error.

We have send a few requests and phone calls to Verifone, but they have
not responded.

I did test our code with another pinpad device and it worked fine, so
it seems it is specific to the Verifone OPOS driver or the Verifone
hardware itself.

If you are thinking about implementing Verifone hardware on POS
for .NET or WePOS, you might want to think twice about this until
Verifone addresses this. There are other manufacturers that are more
responsive.

Has anyone else successfully implemented the Verifone pinpad 1000se
that can share the specific steps they used?

Regards.
