You could leave your scanner hooked up to your apex and use the
hotspot on the phone so your apex would have internet in the
store.

Subject: Re: DigitEyes or another bar code reader?
Hi,
I'd like to know if you can use Digit-Eyes with an external bar
code scanner. I recently bought the QuantumT MS3580 USB bar code
scanner for around $160 and am currently using it with my
BrailleNote Apex BT32 and a service called BC Scan, which can be
found at
www.bcscan.com
The scanner, BrailleNote Apex and the BC Scan service work great
for scanning bar codes, but you have to have a live Internet
connection going to use this service. That may not be practical
in a grocery store setting, for example, where I may not have
access to Wi-Fi.
So, I'd like to get a USB adaptor to hook this scanner up to my
iPhone and try it out with Digit-Eyes or other bar code scanning
apps and my iPhone 4 and maybe even try BC scan over 3G using
Safari. .
Just to clarify a bit, even though I mentioned the QuantumT, the
actual manufacturer of the MS3580 scanner may be either Honeywell
or Metrologic.
Any thoughts on this?
Thanks.
Tom
