We finally got a tidbit of news from NPCT that tells me that PI technology may soon find its place in a very lucrative market being Smart Card. I see many applications for this technology not only in Smart Cards but in baggage and package tracking and also in inventory tracking. Today everything is pointing to miniaturization as witnessed recently in cell phones and Palm Pilots to name a couple. I think you will see the day of carrying around your PC in your pocket. I see the US eventually going to a Smart Card concept as a way to prevent fraudulent transactions and a 100% certainty in E commerce. This is one of the ideas Intel has used by giving all the new Pentium III's a code which gives each customer more assurance in purchasing products over the web. Company management is on its way to Europe this weekend to meet with several parties in Europe regarding PI. Through my research I have found three main companies that use Smart Card those being Motorola,Phillips and Siemens. Lets all watch closely current developments and I highly recommend watching www.ragingbull.com for any more news annnoucments Here is Kathy Knights research and the last news annoucement this past week. We have news on NPCT. I believe it to be a prelude to more positive information coming from the company over the next few weeks.
