I use Symbol Scanners. You can run telnet sessions directly with vt220 or HP emulation built in. The emulation software is in cmos so a battery dying is no longer an issue and the current models use Lithium Ion batteries so as not to have a memory. The only drawback over the WaveLink approach of some years ago is that each device uses a uv license. The WaveLink product Now sold by JBA in Canada uses phantoms for all except the first process.
