Any chance Thunderbolt will support NFC?

Hey all,

First time poster here. I'm in love with the Thunderbolt but am worried I'll buy it and one year later, the whole world will have Near Field Communication (NFC.)

Any thoughts? Is it possible that they haven't announced this yet, or is it definitely not in there?

Nothing has pointed to the Thunderbolt having NFC. This function relies on a specific piece of hardware, so if it does not have it on release, it will not get it later. The new Samsung phone for Verizon may have it, and I think the LG Revolution will as well (along with Wi-Di). Not sure if Bionic will.
