RE: Sirit---TCAFootsteps....good posts. At first blush this seems to be not the best news for Sirit, afterall we want them to sell the transponders again and again and again to the same customers all the while expanding their customer base. However, assuming that California is continuing to use Sirit's technology and product, this approach of battery replacement vs transponder plus battery replacement is going to accelerate the attractiveness of employing the technology. Mass deployment throughout the States and beyond is what I am looking for and when that happens there will be more than enough business for Sirit and its competitors. We already know that there will not likely be a monopoly in this or any other area of RFID business.
I just hope that I'll have a large enough return on my investment to be able to pay the tolls! :)
