Norway, Sweden line up for RFID train

"Ticketing on public transport in Norway and Sweden is being revolutionized by the introduction of a new payment system using RFID smart cards. The scheme, planned to go live in 2006, is a further endorsement for contactless payment which is growing in popularity, especially in public transport. There will still be human interaction with train conductors, who are being equipped with 1,000 pocket PCs with card readers for collecting payment and validating e-tickets." Source: zdnet.com
