Google CEO Eric Schmidt at the Web 2.0 Summit today showed a working example of the Nexus S. He refused to name Samsung as the manufacturer but mentioned it would run Android 2.3, or Gingerbread; it was also seen running on T-Mobile. He wouldn't mention most new features but confirmed the OS and likely the Nexus S would use near field communications (NFC) to support features like payment or getting information just by swiping the phone near a receiver.
