A company I know uses these Windows CE<http://www.motorola.com/business/v/index.jsp?vgnextoid=1f10e90e3ae95110VgnVCM1000008406b00aRCRD>scanners because they are the only thing that will survive a beating in the warehouse. And they only recently replaced the old scanners<http://www.liberty-sys.com/symbol_vrc6946.htm>that ran DOS. And they use them to telnet into an AS/400 for inventory management.
