Mobile trends
The mobile sector of the tech industry is probably the only thing left in the universe that moves faster than a monkey with the keys to a banana factory.
The next huge development will see the widespread adoption Near Field Communications (NFC) chips in almost all new mobile handsets as we move towards 2013.
The many possibilities for NFC, which appears within the newly-announced Sony Xperia T, are many.
The long-held fantasy of a digital wallet in a cashless society could soon be upon us. Soon, our handsets will contain digital bank cards, store cards, identification, travel passes, event tickets or even keys to our cars and houses.
What would be your ultimate use for NFC? Bring your suggestions to the Twitter Party over at @T3dotcom (and remember to include the hashtag #WinWithXperia).
However, NFC isn't the only area of the industry moving at sprint-speed; the quad-core era is now upon us, while recent developments have made the UK's first 4G LTE network possible by the end of 2012.
