Perhaps eventually enhanced to be a barcode reader too and introduced in US?
I know of at least one company that can read a barcode today without using a special lens.
They just landed a major wireless carrier.
Nextcode?? (For Nokia phones??)
A physical world connection player just signed a major deal with a wireless carrier.
I posted it...
Scott, are you referring to the Fandango deal?
You posted this---the Neven Vision/DoCoMo deal.
Was it Leapscan? I have been trying to look back and see which article you posted it under, but can't find it yet. Seems like I remember Nextcode doing a deal recently also. Could be wrong about that.

I will have a full post on this in the next day or so..the same time Google's Blogger decides to work properly.
For the record, I find it very concerning that the company that wants to govern and provide access to content, takes days to get a response from their tech support.
There are no numbers to call if you need immediate attention.
Just a heads up.
