Gen 2 is broad spec, with a lot of options. 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.

Is there any technical report giving hard data from testing using gen 2 tags in any field that anyone is aware of? Thanks.
