the NFC forum have produced a report http://www.nfc-forum.org/resources/white_papers/NFC_Smart_Posters_White_Paper.pdf on deploying NFC to make a sort of minority report-lite environment. the Register is still skeptical but Google seems to be investing heavily in this area. Killer application still seems a way away but I don't seem able to get my phone to read QR tags so who knows !

More on RFID in fiction
RFID is becoming the deus -ex machina of choice for many TV shows - Hawaii 5-0 had a storyline where the baddies were triathletes, and our heros were tracking them via the championchip device complete with bleeping point on electronic map. However the dastards had swapped them and so there was more running etc. until good triumphed. Whether this increases or decreases RFID acceptability remains to be seen
