Quoting Stephen Smith, vice president of the Gartner research firm:
"RFID technology and the business benefits it promises will not arrive with a big bang," said Smith.
"High capital costs, imperfect read rates, unproven systems and uncertainty around standards will all need to be addressed before retailers can adopt and benefit from the technology.
