Research and figure out for yourself whether nfc is useful to you. It can perform multiple functions simultaneously, with a mere tap of the tag. nfc isn't meant to allure you to do things you normally couldn't do ( except pay using your phone at checkouts ) nfc is meant to make those manual tasks easier and seamless.

But like I said, research it yourself, there are several resources, walk throughs and reviews about nfc and its uses. It's pretty cool in my opinion, can't wait to play with it. The possibilities are abundant.

It get in your car, tap it, it enable bt, pairs with your car, start Pandora, disable wifi.

I also read a review a few months back and a guy had set up a "get home After work" tag, it turns off bt, on wifi, lowers ring/notification volume, dims brightness and then send a text to his wife letting her know he's home.

Just think of the possibilities, can't wait to see what the community comes up with.

He'll call the cops because he thinks you're on bath salts.

He'll be cool, unless he thinks you're going to eat him. If you live in Texas he'll plug you.
