Bill, >We support scanners from Grabba, Symbol, and Socket in all of our products. >On the PalmOs side almost all of our users have a Grabba T-series unit and >they work great and almost never generate support issues.
I had early some issues with the Grabba T-series under Palm OS, but they have been very good to work with and now it works very well. >So, imagine our excitement when Socket introduced >the CHS scanner (yes this does tie into the thread of the discussion) Well, I was excited when they pre-announced the SDIO scanner too, but that didn't work out for me either once they shipped it. But I haven't tried another since then, so thought perhaps I was behind the times and they had a viable one now. >Unfortunately it [BT scanner] didn't work out so well...but your >first two items of concern are valid. We never got further than one user so >I can't speak to items 3 and 4. Thanks for confirming that much for me. >One downside to the Grabba is that if there is a camera on the backside of >the device, it is covered up. Camera isn't a concern in my environment, but of course you need a different model depending on the style unit you attach too (ie UC vs Athena connector vs Treo 600 etc). If someone made a nice SDIO based scanner, that would be have its advantages...
