The recent thread regarding the RFID module and USB2SER module made me think how useful it would be if Parallax came out with a laser barcode module or have they done so in the past?
I know of this product

http://www.parallax.com/StoreSearchResults/tabid/768/txtSearch/barcode/List/0/SortField/4/ProductID/566/Default.aspx

but was referring more to a module compatible with all the current barcodes with laser output and yet easy to use as with all Parallax products.

    I'm used several different barcode scanners with the Propeller. It just uses a normal serial connection.

    I've also taken apart several barcode scanners. It shouldn't be too hard to remove the guts from one to use as a "module".

    Here's a link to the thread where I mentioned using barcode scanners.
