[Wylug-help] hand-held device with bar-code reader

[Gary Stainburn]

Hi folks.

I'm looking to develop a wharehouse style catalog system which will include a 
hand-held device which will include a bar-code reader.

The idea is for the user to scan a bar code containing a serial number, and 
then be able to enter a row letter and bay number to record where the unit 
is.

I would like the unit to be able to store this information and then sync to 
the main database when it is in range.  The area being covered is about 4 
acres.

Does anyone have suggestions for:

device to use
platform (presumably linux based not not essential)
develpment platform

or

anything out there that will already do the job.

Gary
