No, don't have the box, thought it was a lot of money to spend for a piece
of cardboard.

Rose,
Forgive me for asking, but do you have a stand scan pro or some such a light
box? This really could help you with these camera apps. I am thinking,
particularly, of your problem finding barcodes. Having the phone in a fixed
position and just moving the item inside the box is a really much easier way
of finding a bar code. I don't normally like to suggest to people to spend
out more money formore things, but in this case I feel sure you would
benefit from it. And one last point, as far as I'm aware, you never can feel
a bar code. They are merely printed impressions and are never tactile.

Good luck,
Sandy
