Re: Looking for Replacement Handheld Scanners

   Teklogix makes a color - windows CE compatible series of handhe= lds and
   truck mounts that actually provide 24 function keys...and then some= . In
   fact, we had to freeze the ones above f24 because they were being acci   
dentally pressed and with the controller not configured to handle them
   prop= erly, the handhelds would freeze, lose their transactions and
   generally cau= se a re-boot to recover the device.

   You just hav= e to make sure you watch teklogix closely as not all of
   their projects ahve= run smoothly in recent times.

   Subject: Looking for Replace= ment Handheld Scanners

   Wit= hout inviting in too many vendors.  We are increasing the number of
   jo= bs
   that require handhelds.  We currently use the Telxon PTC-960SL.<= BR>It
   provides us with 24 function keys and has been reliable.

   The s= earch has been given to the network guy who doesn't do anything on
   the
   A= S/400
   especially not code.  He has come up with Symbol PTD6846 whic= h appears
   to have only 10 function keys (and requires new access points = through
   out
   the plant).

   Has anyone found other scanners that may = have at least 12 function keys
   or
   are
   we doomed to re-write our code?
   Thanks,
