Aiman, do you know the approximate price for general PCB fab? Reply here.

Manufacturer wants specific detail of PCB including the layout to get a
price quote. I don't even know what kind of PCB
material/soldering/microwave or not to choose.

I'm not sure about the type PCBs used for RFID. Normally for electromagnetic 
works,
the smaller the Er the better, such as TYL-5. Tadi saya mention FR-4, but i just
remembered that FR-4 is very lossy (Er=4.38). Pricing goes on a per area basis. 
FR-4
is about $0.30/cm2.

Found the following attachments over the internet. let's discuss about them 
later

Sounds logical. Since ada fyp in us uni, their board cost about 5usd. say that's
10nzd. so, we get about 5 to 6 cm square board. sounds promising. I'll post the 
link
later on costing. but, the basic idea is, the basic device w/out voice 
recognition
stuff can be safely approximated to 50usd.
