Telefónica Digital and Research In Motion have announced an NFC-based mobile wallet.

It’s called the ‘Telefonica wallet for BlackBerry’ and currently supports the BlackBerry Bold 9900, BlackBerry Curve 9360 and BlackBerry Curve 9380, all of which have NFC connectivity and run the BlackBerry 7 operating system.

Having read some of last week’s headlines, you might think the UK’s Communication Ombudsman has told mobile phone networks not to describe their data tariffs as ‘unlimited’ unless they really are. However, what’s actually happened is that one of the UK’s communication ombudsmen (ombudspeople?) has asked mobile operators to be clear about any limits, to stop unexpectedly high bills from building up and to tell customers before they exceed any limit. Better than nothing but hardly earth-shattering.

In this week’s edition of The Fonecast we’re talking about Adobe’s plans to stop developing Flash for mobile browsers, O2’s plans to trial 4G in London, eBay’s plea to the UK government, iZettle’s mobile payment app, some dubious advertising and a security flaw in Apple’s App Store review process.

As usual, you can listen to the programme on our website audio player, via iTunes, by subscribing to our RSS feed or by downloading the MP3.

We’ve had Everything Everywhere launching the UK’s first 4G LTE trial in a corner of Cornwall - and now O2 is switching on the UK’s largest LTE network trial.

It’s set up a 4G network in London and will be running it as a trial for the next 9 months.

Flash is dead, HTML5 is the future. Okay, the next stage in the evolution of the mobile browser isn’t that clear – but a restructure at Adobe has pretty much marked the end of mobile Flash development.
