Interesting comment underneath by someone:
Great advance but will An Post recognise this? In theory only a name and Loc8 code required on envelope - anyone tried this yet?

Codes are read by computer, same as handwritten addresses, a computer sorts them to a general area and then the finer sorting is done by hand. About time this has been implemented.

Not sure it would work that easily. It would be difficult in the sorting office if they only had a code to look at.....?
