NFC Battery for E4GT?

[cpuOahu]

With ATT's GS2 variant getting NFC in its battery, any chance Samsung will make an NFC battery for the E4GT? Is it even possible?

The NFC is not in the battery...it just just written on the battery.

lol - my bad. Thanks for letting me know.

it is in the battery just like the tmo version and the galaxy nexus

I stand corrected. Then we would need different software to use it. Perhaps with a custom ROM?

The way I understand it, the NFC chip is in the phone but the antenna is in the battery in the TMo and ATT phones instead of in the battery door like the Nexus S. So if the Epic 4G Touch doesn't have the chip in the phone and the connectors to use an antenna in the battery then an NFC battery won't do any good.
