Definitely use Zend_Http. If an application has already setup an instance of Zend_Http_Client (e.g. with settings for a HTTP proxy, or a custom useragent), it would be annoying to have to set those options up again to use the Payment component. 2.

It'd be nice to have a few more use cases showing, for example, handling a payment that was declined, or showing validation errors to the user. I would also strongly recommend that you look into 3-D Secure authorisation and work out how you would build support for this into the component. It would be very difficult to add this in at a later date without breaking backward compatibility (which is a problem ActiveMerchant, the Ruby equivalent of this, is currently having). -- Tim Fountain http://tfountain.co.uk/
