Wal-Mart's CIO Dishes on RFID at NRFTech Conference
By Renee Boucher Ferguson
Wal-Mart's philosophy for its stores is deceptively simple: right product, right place, right time. Rollin Ford, the company's new CIO—he was assigned to the top tech job in April—reiterated that Wal-Mart plans to use RFID, in part, to help the massive retailer achieve its goals. "As I took the helm of CIO I got a lot of phone calls; people wanted to know if we would stay the course, if we would continue to be as aggressive with RFID," said Ford, who delivered the keynote address Aug. 8 at the National Retail Federation's NRFTech 2006 conference here in Carlsbad, just north of San Diego.

"The service you get on any Asian carrier, in any class, is amazing," says the managing director at Morten, Beyer & Agnew, a consulting company for the airline industry. "Why do U.S. passengers suffer so much?" The reason, Monteleone says, is because U.S. airlines are focused on the wrong things, like removing pillows to reduce onboard weight.

Infusion No Guarantee of WiMAX Success
Analysts say $900 million investment may not be enough to ensure WiMAX as a next-gen contender.
By Mark Rockwell August 1, 2006 Wireless Week
With Intel and Motorola's $900 million investment in Clearwire in July, hopes for WiMAX to become the next high-capacity, next-generation wireless technology juggernaut were high. But now analysts say the deal may only cause an initial ripple for the developing technology.
