Isis' NFC mobile payments delayed past September target

http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2012/08/isis.jpg Isis must have spoken too soon. Just days after the alliance committed to launching its mobile payment system in September, its marketing lead Jaymee Johnson has warned* FierceMobileContent* that the rollout won’t make the promised summer target. The delay is portrayed as a collection of minor hiccups, although we’re not bracing ourselves for a short wait: Isis plans to update us on the situation in October, and that suggests we won’t be making NFC-based purchases on Isis any sooner. It’s another disappointment for the future-is-now crowd hoping to leave cash behind – not that Apple and Google will object to a rival’s misstep.
