Autoscanning barcode app for windows phone ?

Question

Being in possession of a Kindle, I have decided to catalogue, and retire my paperback collection. Being of a lazy nature, and also slightly geeky, I like the idea of scanning in all the barcodes, to build up a list.

An hour of trawling t'net, Zune, and googling, has convinced me there is no suitable app, which will let my phone work like a supermarket checkout, and scan, log, and scan again, with no user intervention.

There are quite a few barcode reading apps (I have installed RedLaser, Pic2Shop, QuickMark, ScanLife to mention a few) but they all "do something" after the scan, rather than be ready to scan again.

Does anyone know any better. Suggestions of an iPhone will be ignored. I might consider an android app, but that would mean borrowing SWMBO phone. I only have one phone (supplied by work) and it's Windows.

Not sure if it will do what you want but do look at the products.  I have their Book Collector prog.  I think that theymention barcode readers for telephones.Richard

I have "RL Classic" installed, and there is a "Multiple" slider on the scanning screen which seems to do what you ask, including the ability to email yourself the list when you are done.

it will just generate a list of the bar code numbers that's it.

Aha !!!!!! "RL Classic" is called "Red Laser" under Windows Phone. And YES !!!!!! It has the "multiple" feature too. Just a little obscure for those of us in a hurry !!!!Many thanks !
