Near Field Communication set to change the way we use our mobiles. Bluetooth technology has given an update. Mobile manufacturer Nokia have just announced a new mobile phone today, the latest in its collection of Classic mobile phones. The Nokia 6212 Classic is different from the last few releases by Nokia because it is NFC enabled. Near Field Communication is the next generation of mobile technology, which is based on the current Bluetooth technology. It allows mobile users to transfer content from their phone to either other phones or devices seamlessly, and more importantly for free - just like normal Bluetooth works. However NFC can also be used with payment systems – which have recently been trialled for public transport and ticketing systems. So you could end up paying for a train journey by simply waving/touching your phone to a special payment system at the train station. While Near Field Communication does sound like an innovative and exciting new technology sadly it could take a while for relevant companies to pick up on the new technology and implement it, so it could end up simply being a redundant feature on your phone for a little while. Besides the NFC the Nokia 6212 Classic also has all the standard phone features such as 2 megapixel camera, microSD memory card slot, MP3 player, FM radio, Bluetooth, miniUSB and a secondary camera for video calling on 3G. So it is a decent mobile phone, with the added benefit of using Near Field Communication to transfer files, and hopefully in the future for much more interesting uses. So if you are looking for a Nokia that is up to date with the latest NFC technology look no further than the Nokia 6212 Classic – which should be hitting the shops in autumn 2008.
