Symbol Cyclone M2004

Advantages: Small, long battery life, easy to create software
Disadvantages: small memory (250 scanned max)

...If you are looking for an inexpensive barcode scanner with the ability to keep track of just about anyhting with a barcode, then this is the product for you. This item works great in a small buisness environment when value needs to be high for all cash investments. Symbol provides excellent software packages that can be used to create custom software packages that can interact with just about any Microsoft product and database. it is a bit challenging if you have no idea how to program. Skills in VB would be very helpful but the Symbol website has a huge section for developers. The unit is easy to use and very light to carry. The only negative aspect is that is has a small memory. You need to sync the device after scanning 250 items.... Read review

For only scarcely 1,5? it is to be had in each well sorted specialized trade. The blank is packed in a sturdy covering, which is much flat. There is this blank to buy however also now and then times with sickeren coverings. I find the thinner better, since one saves so half at place. The thicker ones are good for inscriptions at the edge. If one copies thus CD or burns a project and on the fast in an unsorted CD shelf wants to find it, one should seize to the thicker. I added myself so far 4 blanks of this mark. Since these are like crude cryable, custom one not so much many. There were not so far ever problems with burns.
