Near Field Communication (NFC)
Wireless Payments through Android phones
During a session at the 2010 Web 2.0 Summit, Google CEO Eric Schmidt revealed that upcoming Android devices would include support for

will have NFC chips built in and the Android™ Gingerbread release
will provide the software needed to allow them to function.
- Android NFC-enabled phones will let you make contact-free payments.
- Android NFC-enabled phone-based payments will be secure.
- Android NFC-enabled phones will allow you to retrieve information.
