Do any of Verizon's Android phones have the NFC chip yet and if not, when can we expect to see one?
None in the current lineup have it and it appears that none of the upcoming LTE phones will either. I'm guessing we're still a ways out from manufacturers seeing the practicality of it.
Same, haven't read about it. Two things: the chip will have to be built-in like the Nexus S and the phone must run 2.3 gingerbread like the Nexus S. We'll see when the 4g phones have more info or even future 3g devices
