Its likely that for tags in particular, early Gen 2 products will have little pratical utility in retail supply chains.
Its easier to build a tag that falls within the span of Gen 2 performance options than to provide something that will work in the real world.
Several firms who have been late to market are rushing to get PR by rolling out Gen 2 products. In the long run, it will be interesting to see which ones have pratical utility and real deployments.
