Brad, If I recall correctly, DC belongs to Printrak. What we are seeing is some interoperability, which is what first was done by Printrak and just a little while ago by NEC. Although I also expect stuff this week, I don't think this would represent any live scan sales for IDX . . . or even for Printrak. David

Brad, maybe there is something here . . . from today's paper: MARYLAND Improvement Planned for Fingerprint System Prince George's County Executive Wayne K. Curry (D) and Montgomery County Executive Douglas M. Duncan (D) announced plans yesterday to spend $1.5 million to upgrade an automated fingerprint identification system that could link their files to other systems in the Washington area by early next year. The counties have shared a fingerprint identification system since 1979, and the enhancements would enable their police departments to scan a suspect's fingerprints and obtain a printout of possible matches within five minutes. Money for the Prince George's share of the project has been approved, and yesterday Duncan submitted an emergency funding request to the Montgomery County Council. "Nowhere is regional cooperation more critical than in law enforcement," Duncan said. The new system will be housed in Hyattsville but will be maintained by employees from both counties. * * * This looks much more like a live scan installation. Who has Maryland, anyway?
