There have been many different RFID tags over the years and the Nexus S does not read them all. In particular the reader in the Nexus S can read many of what are called HF (high frequency) tags. It cannot read UHF (ultra high frequency) tags. Do you know the technology used in what you're referring to as 'ordinary' RFID tags?
