+    Android allows you to transfer large files between devices using the Android Beam file transfer
+    feature. This feature has a simple API and allows users to start the transfer process by simply
+    touching devices. In response, Android Beam file transfer automatically copies files from one
+    device to the other and notifies the user when it's finished.
+</p>
+<p>
+    While the Android Beam file transfer API handles large amounts of data, the Android Beam NDEF
+    transfer API introduced in Android 4.0 (API level 14) handles small amounts of data such as
+    URIs or other small messages. In addition, Android Beam is only one of the features available
+    in the Android NFC framework, which allows you to read NDEF messages from NFC tags. To learn
+    more about Android Beam, see the topic
+    <a href="{@docRoot}guide/topics/connectivity/nfc/nfc.html#p2p"
+    >Beaming NDEF Messages to Other Devices</a>. To learn more about the NFC framework, see the
+    <a href="{@docRoot}guide/topics/connectivity/nfc/index.html"
+    >Near Field Communication</a> API guide.
