What's the thinking with the venue?

Hi All,

Sorry for the delays. I've been travelling a lot this month, and
scheming with jonny about a proper venue too.

Will hopefully get venue availability soon, so will put up a date/vote
asap.

One thing we were thinking of trying was a weekday evening e.g. 6pm-
late. What do people think about that?

I guess not... Maybe Simon needs to start a new poll for November?

I guess the SHDC#16 won't be this saturday, right?
Look forward to meet you whenever it is... And will bring brownies!
Cheers,

I've done a bit. Yes, there are a fair few types in terms of interface
standard (Bluetooth, USB, RS232 or PS/2), and form factor and technology
(wand, gun, fixed scanning laser). Why not build your own?! :)
Here's a good summary of products on the market:

Only one I worked with presented a plain (newline teminated, I
believe) text string over RS232 whenever a scan was successful.
Not too much effort :)

Anyone worked with barcode scanners? Are there many different types?
I've been thinking of afixing one above my fridge (to scan things as
they are opened, or bought) and another above the bin to see when they
are finished, or went off. Hopefully combining the two to find what I
buy that I shouldn't (goes off) and what I should buy more of (runs

Hi SHDCers,

After talking with jonny, our potential new venue isn't available this

But we should be still on for this weekend! Sat 15th, any time after
2pm, my (new) house. If you need the address, just email me!
