my impression is that implanted chips have a tiny, tiny range
I'm not sure about the implanted ones, but I know some RFID tags have been read at 30 feet (probably detailed in RISKS digest or on Bruce Schneier's blog at some point), despite claims by the manufacturers that their range was less than a foot.
