Its a web browser and I pulled up a UPC Database page.

Everytime I walk into a retail store such as Target, I can scan the price of an item off the UPC displayed on the screen, and I don't have to bother with carrying the item to a scanner or writing the UPC down.

= Good for finding clearance prices below marked prices. Cool, but, how much did that device cost you... it might take a while to make it back in target clearances. 😉

Don't some cell phones have web browser capability? That screen looks like the UPC lookup result screen at upcdatabase.com .

No. My cellphone has this wonderful feature of "I dial the number and the phone rings" ... you know, just like a normal phone?

How about price-matching it to Amazon.com for $50 with T-Mobile agreement and $50 Mail-In-Rebate (Received)?

T-Mobile Sidekick.

The Tmobile Sidekick is pretty cool. Is the color one out yet? I haven't paid much attention to Tmobile lately.

 

[pulse8]

I can get to the site and everything, but my Samsung A500 doesn't show the full bar code.

Its set for after May of this year.

I'm going to trade my current T-Mobile Sidekick in for the new one and I get the whole $249 value of the device to the new device.

It doesn't print UPC stickers.

It serves as an easily accessible reference. It's one of several neat tricks on the T-Mobile Sidekick.

I can also browse Anandtech on my T-Mobile Sidekick.

Why would you want to put a shipping label on an item in the store?

Sweet, I didn't even know a color one was in development...
