Well, I heard that this device is coming through.

As for saving that type of information in a cookie, I wouldn't recommand that. IAC, cookie only applies to the current site. So, it would have to be entered for any site. One interesting however, would be to have the browser to store that information. If a protocol could be released, that information could then be seen from the other end.
