Ok, does anyone know about the Identachip stuff? For those who have not heard of it, it is the "microchipping of your pet" stuff. They inject a small transponder or something into your pet and it has a number that can be looked up. It is also used in Asset Tracking. 1. How does it work? 2. Is their a lifespan of the device? Does it have a battery? 3. What is the frequency, range, and general limitations? 4. Is any of this technology avalible for OEMs? 5. How much data can be stored? Some links to this type of stuff: http://www.avidplc.com/assettrac/what.htm http://www.hitec-id.net/ http://www.identichip.com/ http://www.homeagainid.com/ http://www.electronicidinc.com/ www.trovan.com (this link looks dead, but the search pointed to it) Best regards, Giles -- http://www.piclist.com#nomail Going offline?
