Looks like it's the colorized version of ScanLife.

Although I think this and ScanLife are pretty cool, I will only be impressed if I start seeing them everywhere I go. Then this is AWESOME

eldersoul, sounds like you can upgrade!

I used this application and developed some software utilizing this system about 9 months ago. It's really cool. Essentially a barcode though. It's going to really pop into action once cell phones have passive cameras when WinMobile 7 is here. You will probably see alot more of these things. It does work though and works nicely.

Is anyone else amazed at how well it works? This and ScanLife? I'm waiting for that "could not read, try again" prompt, but it never comes. I sometimes don't even have to get the entire code into the frame and it sends me to a website. This is too cool to just let go. Business owners, start pushing this now so you're ahead of the game.

Only place I've seen these so far are in magazines. I've definately been impressed, but it will be even better if/when it gets widely adopted.

Someone told me you could use this to import contacts from a business card. Has anyone had success with that?
