The new library they finished last month in my town is using a  
self-checkout system based on RFID. It's wonderful. You put your stack of  
books and movies on the table, scan your library card, and it prints out a  
receipt. In the words of The Steve, Boom. You're done. It's fast and  
completely painless.
