Price Cuts Will Speed RFID Adoption

"Recent announcements from Alien Technology and Avery Dennison suggest that the prices of RFID tags are finally coming down. Alien has cut the price of its straps to 12.9 US cents, while Avery Dennison is offering inlays at 7.9 cents. Even that sub-8-cent price is still well above the five cent point that some industry analysts earlier touted as the price needed to ensure a viable RFID industry. But that number has more recently been viewed as too simplistic in any case." Source: MoreRFID.com
