In fact, there's actually a trend going around lately that business cards are dying. A lot business contacts these days prefer to simply add to each other's information to their devices, because nobody wants to carry around a bunch of business cards. NFC makes that simple, just tap your phones together and you have all of the relevant info.
You can do a lot more than that, Android has a whole API segment dedicated to NFC.
But as an iphone user, I understand how your mind works: You'll hate any feature that android has and iphone does not, until iphone adds it, then it's the best feature in the world  |
Exchanging info sounds alright, but it's not something I can shoot in a quick email. But can it make me a sandwich? That's what I thought!
Yes, I will make a huge deal about it when the iPhone 5 comes out.
Glad you have me all figured out buddy. Just like location services, NFC would still be a feature that is always powered off.
