To: Not gonna take it anymore
Swordmaker do you think that iPhone 5s will support Apple Pay in the future? I really like the size and weight of the iPhone 5s and hope I don’t have to upgrade to 6 any time soon. I've been considering that question since last night. . . and I've come to the conclusion that it cannot for two reasons.
- No encrypted Secure Element storage chip.
- No NFC radio.
Without these, the system cannot work.

Bummer, Swordmaker. lol I was hoping that the fingerprint use for iTunes etc would help. Guess not. :-)
Ramius I believe the watch alone will support Apple Pay so looks like that is in my future as well.
