well one thing is you dont need to have one of the few cc that have the chip, you can link it to your bank acct or google has a prepaid card. and blink readers are growing in popularity. plus i wouldnt say its a selling point as the nexus s has been out for over a year but its a cool feature that will be available on most newer android phones im sure. plus having a NFC chip does other things also like it can read information from "smart" tags, or everyday objects that have NFC chips in them. These can be anything from stickers and movie posters to t-shirts.
