I just dug this old topic up as I was looking around to find the hardware required to make this work. "ACG Multi-Tag Reader" but I want to make sure I ghet the right thing. Has anyone tried this or even gone so far as to get the hardware? And if so, any chance of bringing it to phreaknic?

As far as I have been able to tell, the hardware for this is simply not available to the general public. Also, given what this stuff usually costs I think this PCMCIA read is likely worth more then a grand. This guy has a friend at an RFID company.

The link below is the best source I've found for information on buying RFID gear, but none of it works with this guy's project, at least out of the box.
