It's disappointing that these guys didn't work with VeriFone before publicizing the attack.

This is FUD, just with different actors.

Where did you get that from? From the article:

"Karsten Nohl and Thomas Roth, of Security Research Labs, say that they have been in touch with VeriFone for six months and have provided technical aid to the company and a German government agency. They are now coming forward to put more pressure on the company—and to raise awareness, “preferably before any criminal can reinvent these attacks.”"
