Dear BPCS List subscribers

Firstly I ought to say hi as I am new to the group. My background is in application development since the early days of the AS/400 using RPG.

Anyway since being thrust out of the RPG market for various reasons political, personal and outsourcing, my interest has turned to handhelds. Now that IEEE 802.11 wireless is even available on a £99 toy (Nintendo DS) due out next week, I think there is good potential for linking portable field applications to BPCS in the warehouse. I am not too expert in BPCS, does it do container un-/stuffing also?

PSION Teklogix have just announced a new handheld RFID reader, http://biz.yahoo.com/bw/050302/25133_1.html, although I haven't looked at it in detail, I expect their lead in the market means this is another significant announcement.

Anyway it is still early days as far as developer productivity, since I really want to develop applications using the Python programming language under the Symbian OS (currently installed in numerous so-called Smart Phones).

If this is an area that is not being addressed by SSA then I would like to take up the challenge, if there is any interest or comment to make by interested users I would be grateful.
