I need to be "walking" around so the need for the wireless and at the same
time need to use a bar code scanner.
I don't think the regular irDA of those handhelds has the power to scan
small barcodes, much less those in from big boxes, do they?

I'm planning this for use in just a local area.  Going over mobile phones
will make the use prohibitive.  :-(


God bless you.
