Android's next OS update will be Android 2.3 (Gingerbread)
Google CEO Eric Schmidt announced that Android 2.3 will integrate Near Field Comminications technologies which enable users to make retail purchases using the Android smartphone. Future Android devices will optionally have NFC chips that allow users to "bump" their phone against participating retailer's point-of-sale technology, which will complete the purchase transaction.
This "bump" solution will also be used to allow users to "bump" Android smpartphones together to share/transmit data and information.
