The complimentary Webinar will take place on Thursday, November 20, 2008 at 11 a.m. ET/8 a.m. PT. In conjunction with the Webinar, Omni-ID is launching a campaign for successful IT asset tracking called "IDyourIT™." Through both the Webinar and its "IDyourIT" campaign, Omni-ID aims to showcase how RFID is revolutionizing IT asset tracking to meet the productivity, compliance and security needs of IT asset managers everywhere.

Thursday's Webinar will be hosted by David Keith, Director of Government Relations and Research of the International Association of Information Technology Asset Managers (IAITAM), and will feature insights from ABI Research Director Michael Liard, IBM's Global Solutions Executive, Sensor and Actuator EBO Nancy Kingston and Omni-ID's President and CEO, Thomas Pavela. Through a series of case-studies, attendees will learn about the different real-world applications of RFID and how RFID can enhance IT asset tracking, including:

--  Productivity: How IBM's end-to-end solution for asset tracking and
    visibility has improved data center efficiency and productivity
