Hi WAMUGers interested in iPhone 6 & iOS 8,

I find this interesting -Apple Partnering With American Express On New iPhone 
Payments System

"Apple's rumored mobile payments initiative appears to be coming closer to 
launch, with Re/code reporting the company has reached a deal to partner with 
American Express.

Apple has reached an agreement with American Express to work together on its 
new iPhone payments system, according to sources familiar with the talks. 
American Express is one of several partners Apple will need to sign up before 
it can launch its new payments plan, which sources say it plans to announce at 
its September 9 product event.

Apple was previously reported to have been in negotiations with Visa over the 
effort, which is said to leverage the upcoming iPhone 6. Just days ago, a logic 
board leak revealed the near field communications (NFC) chip destined for the 
iPhone 6 and which will presumably play an important role in enabling the 
mobile payments functionality."

Cheers,
Ronni
