Mobile Europe magazine have published a special 16-page supplement on near-field communications (NFC) technology. The supplement, writing by Consult Hyperion experts, is available for downloading here.
Today is a good day to read up on this technology, because recently the Google CEO Eric Schmidt announced that their next Android handset, the Nexus S, would have NFC technology on board.
Near-field communication could be used in many ways, and Mr. Schmidt highlighted mobile payments.

Consult Hyperion's practical experience in specifying, designing and implementing NFC applications - including standard Visa and MasterCard applications - is absolutely second to none. With rumours of the next iPhone's NFC capabilities gaining momentum, this is a good time to find out more about the technology and its potential.
