Hi alex, you could always fork out some money on a koamtak kdc300i. ebony consulting has them. Email for a quote if interested. I can tell you it comes in around 650 bucks normally.

Anyway, I've had limited success scanning bar codes. Even when I know where the code is supposed to be, it can be slow getting the app to recognize it, and if I'm not sure then I can spend minutes and never find the code at all. If the app could do one thing better, it would be bar code recognition. I know you're doing your best and are limited by the hardware, but if anything can be done to improve this process... Thanks. My next project is making or buying some clothing labels and going crazy labeling everything I have. :) On Dec 23, 2012, at 12:05 PM, Nancy M <[email protected]> wrote: > The good news is that it is not $30 -- the price or the entire package was reduced to $19.95 earlier this year > > You can also buy just the part you need if you don't need the whole thing. > > If you want only one function (labeling), you can actually use the free version and make text labels; if you want to use audio recording, that is $9.99 and if you want just UPC recognition, that is also $9.99 > > If you have an iPhone 4 or 5 and there is not enough light, we use the flash that is build into the phone; if you have a 3gs, we warn you if there is not enough light to scan by. > > > > On Friday, December 21, 2012 2:46:16 PM UTC-6, Alex wrote: > How easy (or hard) is it to scan a label?
