I thought the same thing. I phoned my phone carrier and they said
it would not cost more as long as your bn did not go over the
data you have in your plan. I am not sure if all carriers are the
same. You may want to contact your carrier and ask them if using
hotspot is more costly then just using the internet from your
phone.

Hi,
Well, that's a thought. Isn't the hot spot expensive, though?

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.

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
