I read that you can pay with your iPhone or Blackberry now at Starbucks, just now when Google is coming out with NFC.

:blink: What do you guys thinks.. temporary development, or here to stay?

If it works....I think it'll stay, at least in busier areas, like NYC. If it has a few bugs, it will die out because people will find it too much of a hassle.

I don't go to Starbucks so it is a moot point for me. I make my own coffee which is cheaper. Nothing fancy, just Black. :D
