Shopping is about to become a whole new experience.
Scanning the label s bar code with a tiny device the size of a key ring, you capture information that allows you to buy the wine later at your leisure. Imagine using that same personal data scanner to gather information about a loaned book before returning it to a friend. Or collecting information for a wedding registry, holiday gift, or birthday list with a quick swipe of your Qoder . All this and more is now possible, thanks to a new partnership between bar code pioneer Intermec Technologies Corp. and cutting-edge information provider Qode. Using the power of bar code information systems long provided to the world s most advanced companies, the two companies are enabling consumers to capture purchase information everywhere they go.
