Interesting news on the url: http: //www.engadget.com/2011/03/18/carriers-at-odds-with-rim-over-nfc-payment-data/: We have heard a fair bit about RIM's plans for NFC-based mobile payments, but it is beginning to look like some of these plans are not fully in line with what the carriers in mind. As the Wall Street Journal reported, there are a brewing dispute between the rim and a number of carriers including AT & T, T-Mobile and Rogers about how NFC payment-related data, or "credentials" are stored, and actually control what data. For its part, RIM wants surprisingly store data in a secure area of the phone itself, which of course people buckling sign in their BlackBerry more than ever, while the carriers are pushing the data is simply stored on the phone's SIM map, to have that would allow customers to move from one cell phone to another easier. While things seem to have found that heat only, it's definitely not like there's a bit of a struggle in the store - according sign in to the Wall Street Journal, RIM is already reaching out to banks on their own in an effort to Strike some treats while Canadian carriers have apparently been told in a RIM "soft" way that "you will not have to do."
