Yes, it is cool but being in North America pretty much there is no practical use to know live balance on SUICA card immediately when you want to know. When in Japan where people really may need to have live balance of SUICA card there is no need to have a cell phone which internet functionality. Can get the balance as you use Scuica.
Also I remember that somewhere in FlyerTalk rule not to respond to the thread more than five years of inactivity, since the information on the thread is likely not current anymore. Encourage to start the new thread. I was talking more about that.
