So many systems that we have today could be improved by a complete redesign. Take the telephone system - if it were reimplemented today, I'd expect digital signatures to make sure I don't get prank hospital calls, caller ID as standard, and a bunch of other features. Taking a system from analog (as buying and stocking food is today) to digital (RFID food barcodes, etc) needs a lot of future-proofing and standards design. Given how bad the IEEE are at standards, I'd give it a while before these things make it in to homes (802.11n ring a bell? no? I'll call again in 3 years...).<br><br>2. Cool hack, but as a student, I can tell you that those expiry dates mean nothing.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Karl]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 23rd 2007 9:40PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Siemens refrigerator gets hacked, adds RFID communication]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/23/siemens-refrigerator-gets-hacked-adds-rfid-communication/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/23/siemens-refrigerator-gets-hacked-adds-rfid-communication/</guid><description><![CDATA[cool hack, it'll be great if it also txt you what you could prepare for dinner based on what's in it and what should be used soon...<br>...so like we let a machine rule our lives, even what we eat...<br>bring it on :)]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[ryan]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 23rd 2007 11:02PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Siemens refrigerator gets hacked, adds RFID communication]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/23/siemens-refrigerator-gets-hacked-adds-rfid-communication/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/23/siemens-refrigerator-gets-hacked-adds-rfid-communication/</guid><description><![CDATA[@Ryan<br><br>One step closer to bringing HAL-9000 to reality.

When it doesn't get put back into the fridge? Or do you have to remove it from a list? There are some design work which should be done on the inventory management system to make it both user friendly and accurate so that you don't have an over-abundance of product. The second is this: how many items are equipped with RFID tags and how long would it take so that most everything is tagged? Because there would be quite a few items which would not be tagged because of the impracticality (produce, eggs) or the cost to tag each item (cans of soda). So if not all the items are tagged, then why tag any at all?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Phoenix]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 24th 2007 4:52AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Siemens refrigerator gets hacked, adds RFID communication]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/23/siemens-refrigerator-gets-hacked-adds-rfid-communication/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/23/siemens-refrigerator-gets-hacked-adds-rfid-communication/</guid><description><![CDATA[WTF hacking refrigerators?
