Half of British consumers are uncomfortable about making cashless payments using a mobile phone, according to new research.
Any thoughts on paying with your mobile phone.

How 'hackable' is it?
I'm not all that happy about the near field stuff on my credit cards either....

I'd need to see the security aspects of paying by mobile as well. Would be convenient though...

The phones feature an NFC antenna connected directly to a special SIM card that allows the owner's identity to be authenticated.
