I was bored and decided to have a crack at it. It's very simple and should provide hours of entertainment for commuters.

Nice. I would have left the frame in tact though and just cut near the edge of the coil. It would have given the coil wires a little more support and/or protection.

This is one feature I miss from the N6230. It had an RFID system built in (in the wallet area) that you could program to respond with a part fixed/part setable ID. Kind of wish the N900 had something like that.

Come on sleepyhead, go to the tube station and test it... it is 11 AM for crying out loud. Given that you have a data enabled device, I am sure you can post whether it worked or not from the tube station.

Jokes aside, excellent idea. Hope it works

Hehe, that looks cool. Please post results. If yours is successful I will give it a go when I get to work on Monday.

FYI, the quickest way to separate the card would be in an ultrasonic bath submerged in acetone (the active ingredient of nail polish remover).

Well, I got to the tube station and it drew a blank. Nothing happened. I took the back off my phone and tried it face down against the reader, but no joy. I removed it from the phone and tried it "naked". Still nothing. And then I noticed that the aerial had come away from one side of the chip! Damn and blast it's fragility!
So, I'll pick up another one (I've got lots of nail varnish remover left) and give it another go.
I found this video, so I know it can be done. It looks like I may have to run the aerial all the way round the case back to get it to work properly, though.
Results to follow...
