Seems we all agree NFC is a significant hardware advancement! So the question remains for all non-US developers - how can we get our hands on hardware without paying over the odds or waiting months for our local carriers to deliver?
We don't need access to every new phone that comes to market, just those introducing key advancements. NFC surely has to be up there as the most significant enhancement since Android begun? Does anyone know if there are any other NFC hardware devices or emulators we could test with?
