RE: [ale] Radio-frequency identification

it also sounds like an attempt to extend the "self
serve" checkout.  i
remember using the express lanes at Wal-Mart and
Kroger where you scan 
the
items yourself, so this will probably be an extention
of those.  you
wouldn't need to scan the items, just place them on
the conveyor belt 
and as
it goes through the scanner it automatically tallys
your order.

i would think you could extend the tracking ability by
using some type 
of
antenna configuration in the parking lots.  most have
ample 
streetlights and
are typically unobscured.

if i remember correctly there was a test of product
tracking tried with
razors, is this related?
