I don't normally spam the group with things, but I suspect a lurker or two may
find this curious. Basically due to a cockup, these RFID tags and readers are
going cheap, and I ordered a set yesterday and it arrived today - which I
find a little impressive :)

Now to figure out how to componentise to enable me to either control
Joe's "Jam" or Dave's mindstorms component :)


Michael.

Anonymised(ish) and cross-posted from another list, think this will be
of interest to some GeekUp'ers.

Hello all,

Alcatel-lucent have an RFID venture called 'Tikitag' (aka the 'internet of
things').
Wank marketing aside, the reader is a quite nice USB based PCSC ACR122(sam)
from ACS, and the included tags are 'Mifare UltraLights'.

Now, Alcatel-Lucent have made a big balls-up and they are not allowed to use
the 'Tikitag' name, so they have a 2 week grace period to sell off their
stockpiled RFID stuff with the 'tikitag' brand.

They have released a 75% discount coupon code "TLOYCODE" that can be used at<
http://www.tikitag.com/e-store> you can get a USB RFID reader and 10 tags
delivered for about a tenner.

I've been playing with this device quite a bit for the last few months, and
you can read a bit about it at my blog - <
