VDC Projects Sharp Drop In RFID Revenue This Year
Written by Evan SchumanJanuary 15th, 2009
VDC is now slashing its RFID projections for this year by a billion dollars, with growth rates “no more than 9.2 percent over 2008 levels.”
The new figures, according to RFID Update, are attributed entirely to the economy. “There is still going to be growth. It is going to slow significantly, but there isn’t going to be a contraction,” said Drew Nathanson, VDC’s director of research operations.

I have strong reservations about the 'individual' certification and posting of that information for merchants. Can you imagine the potential employee poaching that might occur? The implications when competitors can look up how many are certified with each of their competitors?
