FareBot: Read data from public transit cards with your NFC-equipped Android phone - codebutler
Topic: Miscellaneous 7:32 am EST, Feb  9, 2011

When it was announced that the Nexus S would have a built-in NFC radio, I immediately started thinking about the potential of using cell phones with RFID public transit fare systems. The day the Gingerbread source code was released, I picked up a Nexus S and began working on a proof-of-concept application that can read data from transit cards. Though a vacation got in the way, today I’m happy to announce FareBot!

Neat! Man I wish I new about that RFID reader before I bought my new phone last month!
