PayPal to add mobile payment features, hopes to redefine how we shop (till we drop)

Like the side ponytail craze of the '80s, the newest trend is turning out to be the mobile wallet - especially as major players like Google, MasterCard, Verizon, Discover and now PayPal board the bandwagon. Our old buddy - best known for its love affair with eBay (and ripping our own Darren Murph off a solid two large) - has plans to implement new payment features primarily for (but not limited to) mobile. On the to-do list are things like QR / barcode scans, hyper local deals, fast checkout via NFC, etc.
