Highlights from the Nokia Conversations article,
- Nokia announced an NFC version of the recently launched Nokia Lumia 610. Orange will be the first operator to bring the new Nokia Lumia 610 NFC to the market.
- Nokia did this by adding an NFC software stack on top of the Windows Phone platform. The necessary NFC hardware was added into this version of the Lumia 610.
- The new smartphone can pair with NFC accessories and read NFC tags with a single tap.
- It also has all the necessary hardware and software for NFC payment and ticketing solutions. In fact, the Lumia 610 NFC has been certified for contactless payments both with MasterCard for their PayPass solution, and with Visa’s mobile application for payments at the point of sale, Visa payWave.
