Greg,
We have lots of interest in the RFD8500 from several specialized RFID partners in The Benelux Region (Belgium, The Netherlands and Luxembourg). Alison Bullen informed us that there are just a few Global partners and customers selected to run (pre-) Beta's and that there is a limited amount of units. Alison expects to have devices for Europe maybe end of August which is kind of OK. (I understand the situation). In order to get prepared before the availability of the RFD8500 several partners already wants to develop applications/change existing applications to be ready for Launch date (somewhere end of Q3, beginning of Q4 i understood). In spite of fact that they cannot get devices yet they want information about SDK/Developkists/Drivers/Tools how to integrate this device with Android/Apple Devices. In understood we are going to provide ZETI (Zebra Easy text Interface, don;t know what it is). Can we already share this information with our RFID partners (under NDA off cause). Thanks in advance for your help.
