NFC can be used for a variety of reasons, although at the moment it seems largely aimed at mobile payments. RIM however, has decide to expand on the possibilities of NFC in their handsets and have teamed up with HID Global to enable NFC in smartphones to be used as key cards for opening doors. As we all know, the latest lineup of Blackberry devices have come with NFC chips in them. Unfortunately at the moment it appears that NFC has been disabled by the major carriers in the US, although we're not sure if this is the case with Blackberry devices in overseas countries.
Ubergizmo, Future Blackberry devices can use NFC to open doors
