this is the url that shows that product I saw at PCEXPO that only uses one hand....just point and scan, point and scan
In-Hand Scan Card (copy below from web site)

Turn Your Palm-size PC or Handheld PC into a High Performance Mobile Bar Code Scanner Socket's In-Hand Scan™ Card brings a new level of convenience and portability to mobile data collection by combining Socket's Battery Friendly™ CompactFlash CF+ technology with a revolutionary laser scanner from Symbol Technologies. Just plug the card into your Windows CE-based Palm-size PC or Handheld PC, launch Socket's ScanWizard™ keyboard emulation software, and read bar code data into any Windows program. It's 15 times faster and 10,000 times more accurate than manual data entry. And it only takes one hand!

also...I see that Socket will be a part of the MSFT CE pavillion at the Expo coming up July 6th in Amsterdam.... and the phone card package will be released in September...

Great! Mary

this is the other hand held type scanner (the type we see store registers using on the big items in our grocery cart:
