ScoutPalSE3 brings affordable Laser barcode scanning technology to cell phone bookscouting. ScoutPalSE3 combines the ease of use of a cell phone
handset with the accuracy, speed and flexibility of a true Laser
scanner, producing a powerful integrated tool for wireless bookscouting.
The ScoutPalSE3 system will
work with any web-activated Nextel or
BoostMobile 3-digit phone that has a Motorola "Falcon" style
accessory connector. (Click
to view an example of a Falcon connector.)
Compatible phones currently being sold new by Nextel
include the i365, i580 and i920. Many other older model Nextel phones are
compatible, including i265, i275, i355, i560, i576, i615, i670, i760,
i850, i880, and others, as long as the phone has a
Falcon-style connector.
(Phone models that are out of stock at Nextel are sometimes available
new from indirect Nextel agents like
wirefly.com)
At
the present time, BoostMobile does not offer a Falcon phone, but used
BoostMobile i415 phones can often be
found on eBay, and they are a bargain, with low ongoing service costs.
ScoutPalSE3-compatible phones can often be found used
and new on eBay and other online venues at very low prices.
If you buy a used phone,
be sure to confirm with the seller that a SIM card is included. (SIM
cards are also available separately on eBay.)
* ScoutPalSE is only available for specific phones that operate on Nextel/Boost cellular networks only. ScoutPalSE is
not available for any other phone with any other cellular
carrier, such as AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile, etc.
