Yeah, the poster above said "no wireless capability" though. NFC is wireless.
And even without that, I prefer a single short range wireless connectivity to a multiband device with very high processing power and multiple sensors and various attack vectors having all my effects consolidated in it.
Agreed. A passive RFID chip, that require an external signal to power itself, is better than a mobile app.
