I was skimming the box contents for the 920 and was bummed to find that the at&t version ditches the headphones included with the intl version. They instead are including an NFC tag :/
Weak, how apple esque to milk us for more money.
I've got a bunch of headphones, but the mics don't work with any of them. It would have been nice to have a cheap pair with a mic that I could travel with.Those earplugs are worth a couple of euros and can be bought seperately for a few euros too, so it's not like you lost overly much, but I do understand that one would rather have them than not have them. Personally I'd probably have more use for the NFC tag..
Weak!! Good thing that I got those freebies at the launch event! :lol: Even though they're yellow and won't match my red one. :'( They are actually quite decent though... worth picking up if you don't have an alternate pair in mind.
But that's very AT&T-like. Lame!

did you get the Monster Purity buds or the regular pack-ins?

Excuse my ignorance on NFC, but what purpose does the NFC tag serve?
Assuming its a writable tag, Nokia will include an app to read and write to NFC tags. No one knows yet how limited/limitless the instruction set will be, but you will at least be able to program a tag to launch an app with a tap. Think of it like running a batch file. Tying it in to home multimedia or automation has limitless possibilities. Good time to be alive.Excuse my ignorance on NFC, but what purpose does the NFC tag serve?
You can program you phone to interact with the tag. You could for example set a tag somewhere in your car so when you tap the phone to it, the phone would turn bluetooth on, start playing music from an app and set your ringer to high.
