Sorry I forgot to mention with these apps you take a picture of the product.  No bar code scanning involved.

I have a friend who wants something that does the same thing, but the ID Mate costs $1,200, and she would prefer not to pay that much. I am wondering what other devices are out there that work the same way (by scanning the bar code). Please share anything you are aware of -- iPhone apps as well as stand alone devices.
