I was wondering if anybody knew of a list of NFC Capable phones. I believe certain iPhones and a Nexus phone are capable of NFC. Are there any more at the current time? More specifically, does the Droid2 have NFC capabilities?
Thanks in advance :D
Try this list, updated daily. It's as close to definitive as you'll find:

(Disclosure: I maintain this list)
There's only one commercially available NFC handset, Samsung's Nexus S on the Android platform. The rest are concept phones that had limited production runs. AFAIK there's no iPhone with an integrated NFC chip, but there is at least one add-on module for the iPhone which adds NFC as external hardware. Rumor has it that the iPhone 5 will have integrated NFC, and I recently heard another rumor that it won't ;)

In my work we recently started to build iphone (and a little bit of android) apps.
and now we are searching for a software that we could make an automated tests for our apps.
It could be a virtual emulator or a physical device, it doesn't matter.
the only condition is that we can't use a jailbroken devices.
Can someone help me to find some softwares so we could make automation on iphone (and android if possible)?
If there are emulators or plugins for QTP it will also be fine Because we are using QTP Regularly.
Thanks a lot,
Idan.
You can test mobile devices with QTP using Perfecto Mobile, I'm not sure how good a fix this will be for you since they provide the mobile devices as a service.

I have been hearing and reading lots of rumours around Silverlight 5 being the last release of Silverlight for the PC. Is this true? Is it just rumour?
Its a rumor until Microsoft announces it! :) And no announcements has been made on that.
So start by waiting for the official Silverlight 5 release. After that, we will see if Microsoft still pushes for Silverlight on PCs.
Indeed its not reassuring to see that the Plug-ins are not supported in Windows 8 Metro mode. But Silverlight will stay for sure (at least for mobiles) since its the main development platform of Windows Phone 7. They just cant abandon it.

I'm a .NET/Flex web/windows developer about to make the plunge into mobile development. I was wondering what toolkit other mobile developers use to build their applications.
Is there any toolkit that works on all mobile devices, that provides a rich interface, preferably with touch capability? Ease of development would be a bonus.
What framework do you recommend? What are its advantages and limitations?
Your question is far more generalized and covers a broad view of mobile development. Mobile development can be of many types depending on many factors like:
Execution environments
Platform development environment
You can check the Wikipedia page for a generalized idea of what a mobile development can be and what types of developments can be done for what.

i am about to design feature for web app enabling live video trainings. Requirements are pretty much this: there are some VIP members (trainers), they are able to start new lesson (with nothing else but web browser and webcam), and non-vip members can watch it online (and the session should be recorded too for later on-demand watching..). The application is ASP.NET MVC 2.
I done some quick research, and as I see it, there are 2 platforms : adobe flash (media server + flash player on client side), and MS (windows media services + silverlight on client). I would rather go for MS solution (already got licences for windows server,etc.), but I am not sure if it is even possible - I have not found any examples of somebody doing this - I mean upstreaming video from webcam do server, encoding it with media encoder (this part is the question) and streaming it to clients... can you give me any clues about this please? or should I go for Flash platform for this ?
Thanx a lot !

As per my assumption () there are hundreds of millions of Chinese mobile phones (or clones of brand phones) out there. And it seems firmware and OS of those mobile phones are same. Those phones only differ in their design and may be hardware.
I was wondering if there is any development kit or software development support for those mobile phones. What is that OS and/or firmware inside those phones? Are those open source or available online anyway? Do those phones support java? Where to get more information about those phones and their software online?
Thanks a lot in advance.
I saw a lot of chinesemobile phones using Win Mobile OS
