Press Release Summary: iDTRONIC offers several UHF development kits specially
configured for developing UHF applications. These are complete hardware solutions,
including software tools with drivers, demo applications and source code. The
Software Development Kit (SDKs) include everything necessary to easily develop your
unique implementation.

Press Release Body: The innovative and versatile UHF Long Range Gate Starter Kit
consists of the high-performance iDTRONIC UHF Long Range Reader / Writer, four Long
Range Antennas UHF "A1", two stands, all required mounting equipment and cables, as
well as a full Software Development Kit on CD-ROM.

iDTRONIC´s new UHF RFID Reader/Writer covers the global UHF frequency range, and is
designed as a Multi-tag UHF Reader capable of reading tags that conform to the EPC
Generation Two (Gen2) and ISO 18000-6 B/C standards. This multi-protocol,
multi-regional UHF RFID Reader supports the very important Dense Reader Mode (DRM)
the Listen before talk feature. With its Anti-self Jamming (ASJ) technology, the
reader supports a Multi-Reader Environment for several readers simultaneously.

The new UHF-LRA circular polarized UHF antenna covers both European and US RFID
bands and reading Distances of up to 10 metres are easily achieved. The antenna is
entirely waterproof and is very easy to install. The circular polarization allows
tags to be read in multiple 3D orientations.

iDTRONIC is also introducing as a premier at RFID World in Las Vegas its new UHF USB
Stick. iDTRONIC´s new UHF USB Stick is the world's first UHF reader to meet the
market's requirements for this unique form factor. It is an easy to handle RFID
Reader to be used with USB equipped Terminals and Laptops. Its light weight and
compact design, in combination with the latest technology and a robust ABS housing,
make it perfectly suited to a very wide range of identification applications.

The reader includes a multi-color LED indicator to easily monitor the reading
status. The linearly polarized built-in antenna allows a maximum reading distance of
up to 80cm. The USB V2.0 type A ensures reliable, high-speed data transfer. The
reader uses the 5V USB power supply, and the power output is adjustable up to 20dBm.
Moreover, the Reader offers a reader sensitivity well over 90 dBm.

Logistics management, track-and-trace, distribution systems, and inventory control
environments all benefit from the high performance of this innovative stick reader.
Able to operate at temperatures of up to 60°C, it can even be used in very rough
environments. iDTRONIC's USB Stick - UHF is packaged with a full SDK and Demo
software for Windows.

The newest member of iDTRONIC´s Compact Flash Reader Family is the CF UHF RFID
Reader. It has been designed and developed to allow Pocket PCs, PDA's, Handheld
Terminals and other mobile devices to access to ISO 18000-6 Part B + C (Gen1-Gen2)
UHF smart labels, tags and ISO transponders.

Weighing just 30 grams, and measuring just 95mm x 60mm x 12 mm in combination with a
robust ABS housing, the new reader fits in anywhere. Efficient power management is
ensured by the 3.3 Volt Power supply, with power consumption of just 20 mA in
Stand-by mode and 250 mA in Active mode. The reading distance for the CF Reader can
be up to 50cm, depending on the type of transponder.

iDTRONIC´s CF device is packaged with a CD ROM containing PDA & PC SDKs for
development in Windows environment, or with an optional PCMCIA to CF adaptor.

iDTRONIC´s new UHF Handheld Terminal Ezit II delivers maximum performance and
reliability in a lightweight and extremely rugged design. It allows the capture of a
comprehensive range of data - from RFID tags and bar codes to images - even in
remote areas, where fixed RFID readers can´t reach.

iDTRONIC's EzIT II is IP54-rated, exceeding military specifications for resistance
to drops, dust, vibration and both high and low temperatures. These features give
users the ability to work in nearly any environment and dramatically reduces repair
and downtime costs. The ease of use and portability of the Ezit II combine to
deliver exceptional ergonomics, ensuring reliable performance wherever and whenever
you need it.

iDTRONIC´s UHF Adhesive Labels and UHF Hardtag Transponders complete iDTRONIC´s UHF
Family. The UHF Adhesive Labels are specially suited for supply chain and logistics
application, where long operating distances are required. They have blank matt paper
on the top, which protects the chip and the antenna underneath.

The iDTRONIC UHF Hard Tags come in a very robust ABS housing and have been designed
for rough environment. The on-metal Tags has a 3M durable adhesive layer with
release paper on the backside of the tag. They are available in 3 different
dimensions with different UHF chip versions and frequencies of 868 and 915MHz.
