I did get it to work. When you go to the site (the ScanLife site) select your options under SmartPhone and not sprint.

Can you elaborate a little more pls. I checked in on it still unable to read the barcodes

works fine on my touch, however it serves no purpose because the technology hasn't been adapted by anyone. Interesting idea but there are a lot of cooler ways to advertise than fancy barcodes.

you aren't missing anything.

Yes. There is not much use for it. If it could read actual product bar codes and check if there are better prices like on a G1 android phone, that would be nice.

On ScanLife site select Windows Mobile under Smartphone users:
http://www.scanlife.com/appdownload.html

Both ways work the same, but that is what I selected.

I was able to get a version that worked from www.getscanlife.com (from the phone). Also, you can create a code on scanlife.com that links to your contact info which is pretty cool.

Damn, i thought this scanlife thing was for real barcodes. I wonder if the G1's barcode reader will work on the andriod for touch...
