A poster on Stockhouse.

That's an active board with a lot of noise but there
are numerous gems that keep you informed of how the
players and technologies are doing.

RFID is enourmous and inevitable. The advances in the
last few years have shaved many years off before feasible
implementation can really start.

The key to SAMsys is the number of competitive protocols
their reader can handle. It is the first truly open
concept so that a WalMart can control its goods regardless
of the tag.

The key to implementation date is the serious advances
recently in bringing the per tag cost down to viable
levels and the advances in technology (such as the
technology to insert the tags into the boxes or packages
such as the Tide example in the article I pasted.

With SAMsys hooking back into BTG (they bought a 27%
stake I believe) partly for a close UHF joint venture and
partly for their leading edge operational expertise, the
cash issue for SMY was solved and they have an additional
venue above and beyond their IP relationship.

One of the issues surrounding implementation is the lack
of a full service offering. The move to RFID requires
something of a general contractor type service that
project manages the extensive changeover. This includes
integration into existing technology systems for example.

The upside of real time supply chain management is so
huge its difficult to estimate. Theft alone is in the
many billions. Client profiling (they pick up the boxes
if...they purchase when...with REAL numbers and no
behaviour interference)is worth billions. Product
focusing (WalMart one of the best in retailing estimates
at any one time it has 20% of its product in the wrong
place) is worth billions.

It can't be said for certain that SMY will be a winner;
but, they're in good position. What can be said with
certainty is RFID is coming and barcoding will die.
