*** Nexus 5 THE Official Thread ***

Well a big let down from CPW in Sheffield , ordered online to collect in store, get to shop 2 hours later and no record of the order , best they can do is a mail order for Monday. Suspious that the nexus 5 sign for contracts was still outside. Have an order from google on its way at least.
 
So one of the new features with 4.4 is NFC emulation.

Does this mean it's possible to clone a travel card, such as an Oyster, and write it to a blank card? Or am I missing something? I thought there would be some sort of encryption preventing this.

From what I can gather it means the carriers no longer need to allow Google access to the secure element of the phone which is what was making rolling out NFC such a pain in the arse.
So hopefully we'll see a lot more NFC payment, loyalty card type apps.
 
I see CPW has the option to add to basket now, reserve and collect in store a Sim-Free Handset, problem is no local stores list them as available. Has anyone else achieved success of this method?
