Would be nice if the 920 could do this. Perhaps app enabled?
I've been thinking (hoping?) that you will be able to share between OS's- phones with Bluetooth (except Windows Phone) have been able to transfer photos via Bluetooth for years. My hope is that with NFC, this will make it easier, and faster, no matter the platform - as long as it has NFC.Can you share between 2 different OS's? Since a lot of my co-workers are on androids, it would be nice to be able to share documents with them easily like that. I also assume any Windows 8 tablet with NFC should be able to be shared with as well?

I'm fairly sure NFC (aside from mobile payments) facilitates easy pairing/sharing and can negotiate the networking between the hosts via NFC radio, Bluetooth, or Wifi so that depending upon what you are doing/sharing you can get faster connection speeds. In terms of gaming or streaming video you may want a wifi connection, Bluetooth for audio streaming, and NFC radio for url sharing. I think we will see more sharing via NFC with devices like gaming consoles, TVs, stereos, thermostats, etc in addition to computers, tablets, and smartphones.NFC is cool, so don't get me wrong here. But if you and your mates devices are already BT paired, isn't it just as easy, or easier to send a file via BT, from 20ft away. Assuming BT has been enabled in WP8 of course.
I see NFC as a plus for sending something to someone you have never paired with before, eliminating that step. Also for retail purchasing and tapping those slick tags.
Just think the tapping phones amongst family members or close friends commercials are just like the Siri ads. Lots of hype, but not all that effective. I mean, you still have to select a file before you tap. Samsungs can't read your mind yet. Am I missing something?

I'm a bit confused by that statement. I thought NFC was included with the 920, am I wrong?
