Intermec releases Computer and RFID Reader deployment kit

According to Paul Sanford, senior product manager at Microsoft, the deployment kit gives Microsoft software integration partners the tools that developers need to build plug-and-playvertical market applications.

“We want to enable our partners to develop cost effective RFID-based solutions that span organisational and geographic boundaries,” said Sanford.
