This paper from ATKearney says that while the vision of RFID is compelling, the transition from today's practice to the EPC enabled future will be challenging Initial economises are not always favourable and shall ultimately depned on dramtic improvements in hardware and software and tag costs. Governing standards for these are not still established. Many teachnical issues related to these need to be resolved. Consumer privacy,methods for sharing data are still grey areas and therefore the paper argues that 2004-2005 would be a period of trials and pilots.The combination of WI-FI and RFID are going to create a huge impact after 2005. Very well written paper - Must read for all interested in RFID.
