I haven't read the Verlinde paper, but wanted to mention one of the papers it apparently builds on. That's Ted Jacobson's remarkable paper showing that gravity is a consequence of (1) thermodynamics and (2) the black hole entropy law. The paper is http://arxiv.org/abs/gr-qc/9504004 Sabine Hossenfelder has some useful comments on Verlinde's work here: http://backreaction.blogspot.com/2010/03/gravity-is-entropy-...
