| I think Amazon should come out with a really small barcode scanner for the dock connector. From what understand, 3.0 opens that up for developers...right? Then you can scan stuff in at a retail store and compare prices or just order the product through Amazon. Sites like Pricegrabber could also do this for total price comparison. Wouldn't that be handy? |

The android phone does this with its camera.
I don't see why they can't develop something like this for the iphone that doesn't need a scanner. _________________ Core 2 duo 2.0 Mini on a 26" Sharp LC-26GD4U GO CANES!!!! |

| I didn't know the Android phone had that feature. I'll have to read up on how it works. |

I actually just bought that one today. A little touchy but it actually scans the camera and finds the barcode by itself, you don't have to take a picture.
I was scanning everything i saw in home depot. lol _________________ Core 2 duo 2.0 Mini on a 26" Sharp LC-26GD4U GO CANES!!!! |
