I've had success with Hand Held Product's Dolphin 7200 batch
scanner. The Dolphin is a very small, lightweight unit. The C language
compiler in their development kit is easy to use and the kit has several
templates which can be used to create applications like you apparently
need. The unit runs a micro-DOS system. The Post Office uses these, which
is testimony to their ruggedness.

Have used Intermec products in the past and they also performed
well. Programmed their old 9440 handhelds using the proprietary IRL code
to develop applications - not sure what they're using now.

Background info:
We are considering the purchase of some type of handheld scanner that
will save our outside sales force the paper-pencil solutions they are
currently using.
Our idea is to have them enter a customer account number, then scan
barcodes affixed to bins where our product is kept, then enter a number
which represents an inventory adjustment.
When they get back to their desk, they would plug the scanner in and hit
a key and the data would be read off the scanner and processed by our
business application.
question for the list:
What types of products are available which are easily setup and don't
cost a first born child. The ones I've been familiar with in the past
are Telxon and Intermec, but for real-time telnet connectivity we use
Symbol (PDT3146us) technology.
Any quick responses that point me in the right direction will be greatly
appreciated.
