This sounds like a good app if enough ppl put some time into it...guess i could grab some uploads next time im in walmart..
It's a Zxing based barcode decoding application (just like barcorama that i've been using for a while) which is enabled for product recognition (mainly intended for EAN-8 / EAN-13 and UPC barcodes) that will display information the origin country of the product and allows to download product information (if available) and to edit and upload product and price information for your country as well using a WCF webservice.
Actually the online database is still quite empty as i've been the only one to use it during the last days (it contains a few switzerland products) but i'm nearly sure that it can grow very quickly if everybody plays the game and uploads some products.
The advantage is that you don't need to be online to use the application because there is also a local database that will store every product you scan and the price information you might enter in the application.
It's still at a proof of concept stage actually and issues might occur however please do no upload crap informations to the server. if you play with it please enter accurate information regarding the products and prices as everything is pushed to the server when you click "upload".
I didn't finish handling individual account so everybody can add, edit and download the products informations so it's also up to you to make this work and become useful
This application is using .NET Compact Framework 3.5 and SQL Compact 3.5.
Here are the files you might have to install:
Compact Framework 3.5
SQL Compact 3.5 SP1 (Updated to fix the SQL issue)
