stages for developing NFC applications

i am new to the NFC technology. i have experience in developing Android appllicaions. i need to get some basic concepts regarding the development of NFC applications. to start with, what are steps for developing NFC applications in a mobile phone? i came across to these stages... 1) NFC Chip design (hardware part), 2) software application development, 3)embedded firmware development, 4) Mobile device application development (Java, Android, Windows Mobile etc.). i cannot get any in-depth idea about these. which of the above points are available in the market for free?

as the first step, i just want to develop an API for a NFC enabled android phone. what are the points i need to consider? which SDK?

later, i would like to design hardware and embed it in a mobile and then develop API.

i have come across some APIs like... Google API, Open NFC API, contactless communication API. i dont know what are differences... i would like to have a clear concept regarding the stages of NFC application development from scratch.

i also want to know about developing APIs in Symbian and iPhone...
