Now New iPhone or iPad likely become E-wallet... now serious stuff

Are you hear new news? like in title , thats right , The next generation of iphones an ipads can replace fungtion of your wallet.

Richard Doherty , director of consulting firm Envisioneering Group, says Apple services that customers use their cell phones or tablet can introduce to make purchases.


How Apple will do it? By embedding NFC chips in upcoming iPhones on the AT & T network and iPads. Doherty says both products are "likely to be introduced this year," and quoted unnamed engineers to the hardware for the project.

While this is "huge" (such as Silicon Alley Insider Pascal-Emmanuel Gobry puts it), it is no surprise - we knew Apple was planning a serious date with NFC technology back in May.

Of course IOS devices not only mobile devices that are NFC will get this year. Google CEO Eric Schmidt said decisive in November that the latest Android devices will also NFC.

So what does this mean for consumers? Now, using NFC technology, the phone will replace pretty much be able to your wallet. Instead of carrying around credit cards, you'll only be able to tap your phone to pay for the item. If this seems a bit, uh, dangerous, it is not - it is supposedly a higher level of authentication as it can provide a credit card and your card "number" is kept securely encrypted on your mobile phone.

There are other uses for NFC, of course - you'll get information through "check in" with sensors around the city and could function as a hotel key. Schmidt introduced as NFC, the Android crowd, he mentioned that "people do not understand how much more powerful, these devices will be."

Silicon Alley Insider suggests that not only the payment painless and simple, but Apple will be able to help customers order iAds stories target because the company have this information.

And now it's slow sound a bit creepy.

Do not get me wrong. The power of the NFC technology and its ability to turn your phone into everything under the sun is pretty cool - in theory. But do you really want to wear anything under the sun - your wallet, hotel key, your phone, your private information - with you in a nice little package? One of the best things about losing your credit card (I know, hard to imagine there are "best things" about it) is that if you have not lost your phone, then you can call immediately and cancel the card.

Sure, Apple has its remote wipe feature, but you have to get to a computer and quickly. As for the painless payment processing, well, there is something to be said for paying in cash. It is not necessarily a good thing for people to be able to pay for something in two seconds flat, without ever really see that they made a transaction...

Iphone now will take a place in the worl i thing... do you?
