Interestingly when Johny Ive was saying "It's not just rampant technology for technology's sake. Every single component, every process has been considered and measured to make sure that its truly useful and it actually enhances the user experience" in the new 5s introduction videos, it reminded me of NFC specifically. For many reasons that you listed this otherwise cool technology is not yet ready.

- nicholassmith 13y agoYeah NFC and a few other things came to mind when he talked about it. It's an interesting technology but it's just not big enough to make it worth the development time on including it into their devices, but from what I've heard from someone who worked for a large UK phone company Apple did actually accidentally release SKU details that listed NFC, only for it to be missing in action at release. I'm sure they've explored it before declaring it dead in the water.
