Samsung has developed a prototype SGH-X700 mobile phone with NFC (Near Field Communication) that can be used for wireless transactions. Using the NFC X700, users can pay for things such as CDs and DVDs, and gain entry to areas such as tube stations just by waving the phone over an appropriate receiver.
Jointly developed by Philips and Sony, NFC is a combination of contactless identification and interconnection technologies that enables wireless short-range communication between mobile devices, consumer electronics, PCs and smart objects.
