Google Wallet Launched in EUA

The first step for freedom…

It was launched last week the last “must have” service from Google.
Google Wallet it’s service based on Near Field Communication (NFC) that allows users to make theirs payments using their smartphone.

If the store its equipped with this technology the person just need to pass it’s smartphone near a dispositive and a PIN number will be asked to allow the charge and pay the bill.

For now, and as expected, this service it’s only available for who has bought a Sprint Nexus S 4G smartphone, and from them just a very reduced number of users were selected to use the service.
Also, for now it’s only available for Citi MasterCard owners.
There are obviously a tremendous number of security issues and problems that Google must, and I believe will, be very observant.

This technology should be rolled out in a very slow way but can be a very very nice to have in a very near future although there are not yet any kind of dates for expanding.
