NFC TAGS - Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II

Was wondering if anyone has played around with NFC tags. I ordered a new case for my phone and it came with one. I have setup a few tasks to automate things. I was wondering what others have used them for and what apps they use and recommend.

Bluetooth Keyboard

Anyone using on and wants to recommend me one? Im looking around on amazon but cant seem to find one which is good.
Some sort of detachable keyboard would be awesome as I can use it during my work meetings and then take it off after work

Sbeam and nfc

So I'm rooted with vanilla root box, and my friend has the s3 as well, stock unrooted however. I can beam him pics and apps, but can't get anything from him, just says beam failed.
Furthermore, what's the difference between sbeam and NFC?

Nobody knows anything on the subject? How odd...

AOSP uses Android Beam. Stock uses SBeam ("groundbreaking" Samsung technology). Looks like SBeam isn't fully compatible with Android Beam.
NFC is Near Field Communcation. You can Google that one.
I know what it stands for, but what you're saying is NFC is the technology sending the data, but abeam is just the name of the protocol they use to utilize it?

Tablet apps?

Dumb question but is there any way to run an app like next issue? It's available for iPhone but on android it seems to only work on tablets. Tried side loading to no avail.

There is an app called 'Issuu' that is compatible with most phones. That's the only app I can think of that would come closest to what you're looking for
Maybe use an exposed modal to spoof play store into thinking u have a tablet... or doing it manually in the build prop..

Security hack?

This was just posted by one of our local news stations. It mentions SwiftKey keyboard (which I currently use) and all Samsung Galaxy phones. Thought it might be something to look at.
