Title: Next Google Android version to include E-wallet Post by: jgarzik on November 16, 2010, 04:11:58 PM URL: http://www.wired.com/epicenter/2010/11/android-wallet
Quote Google’s newest iteration of its Android phone OS will include a wallet that lets use your phone to make payments by tapping it against a cash register, CEO Eric Schmidt revealed Monday. [...] Near Field Communication sounds fancy, but it’s the same technology build into debit cards that can be used to make a payment by bumping against a reader at a store or gas pump. Android 2.3 devices that have the right on-board chip will be able to make payments using stored credit card numbers or other payment systems such as PayPal. While U.S. geeks have long hungered for their phones to do away with plastic credit cards, the NFC technology is not likely to replace credit card companies. In fact, Schmidt said those companies are excited about Near Field Communication because they think it will reduce fraud.

We need to be all over NFC, and Dash7, with a working Android client and a local wallet.dat.
