Wait. SWP for NFC is not dependent on bluetooth, it's a separate chip.
No SWP for N9, as it doesn't have the secure-element.
I've heard it's possible to add secure-element through SIM (if your carrier/bank supports it) or sticker.
But even then it depends on whether Nok. will support that.
I think they'll only support future phones with secure-element embedded.
But they don't seem to have even a vague plan to compete with Google Wallet yet.
They misguidedly seem to think the future with NFC is "elsewhere".
See the comments in particular in this article, there's a telling youtube vid. linked.

Maybe they're just not telling us...
But they really need to speak-up soon, if they do have competing scheme planned.
But how are they going from 2.1 to 4.0?
Drivers have it "crippled" at 2.1 levels but it's capable of more?

Possibly a payment system using BT 4.0 instead of NFC ?

It has more security holes in it than swiss cheese....
Anyway this is all getting more into the realm of speculation (ala water-cooler thread)

I have another question... what exactly does Bluetooth 4.0 bring to the table that's currently being utilized by the N9 - and it is confirmed that it's BT4, right?
However its still not confirmed if N9 will have it. It seems like they removed and maybe replaced it with an old chip. But first specs actually said it was BT4.0

I assume so.
In sweden it seems we will have it via simcard.
