>I did some digging, but other than Hallogram's estore I wasn't able to come up with anything about DialCard.

I don't think he has a website.

>Is DialCard a program that replaces the credit card validation machine or is it a company that offers merchant services plus a PC-Based validation system?

You don't need a cc machine. You just get the credit card number and expiration date, pass it to Joshua's FoxPro programs and it will use a modem to call the processor (Visanet, FDMS North, whatever) and you get a result back. It settles batches and all that fun stuff. It also reads information from the credit card "Tracks" if you want to swipe the cards using a Cherry Keyboard or something similar.

Not sure how to get a hold of the guy.

>Thanks and hope to see you in Milwaukee!

I should be there
