[QUOTE="The Feedster, post: 514518, member: 259515"] We recently lifted the lid on just how useful - not to mention pervasive - [URL="http://www.techradar.com/news/phone-and-communications/mobile-phones/the-next-big-thing-for-your-mobile-phone-351553"]RFID technology is in Japan[/URL], so it's with a glad heart that we bring you news of a move that's sure to help it spread more quickly in the West. The [URL="http://www.techradar.com/search/results?searchterm=felica&dated=&datem=&datey=&show=&sort=date"]FeliCa[/URL] RFID technology at the heart of almost all the wireless e-cash and ticketing goodness in Japan looks set to reach North America after Sony announced a new scheme to help companies develop systems there to use it. [B]Applied knowledge[/B] Sony's FeliCa System Integrator Application Developer ([URL="http://www.prnewswire.com/cgi-bin/stories.pl?ACCT=104&STORY=/www/story/05-07-2008/0004808476&EDATE="]SIAD[/URL]) program will focus on delivering the know-how gained in Japan through support and training resources to anyone looking to add RFID to their existing businesses. That could be anything from creating a system for cinemas to put movie tickets in their customers' phones to a full-blown e-cash rollout for giant retail chains. [B]Early adopter[/B] Jeff Hilliard, boss of Compudigital, an early SIAD member, spelled out the benefits: "FeliCa technology is on the edge of the technology curve, has unlimited application potential and opens up a whole new world for developers." And, especially, for customers too, he might have added. As the Far-Eastern experience has already shown, once IC chips and their RFID applications open the door to wireless transactions of every kind, there really is no going back. Watch this space.
