Considering the price, it rocks socks, especially if you de-claw it to make it spit out proper barcodes (you just need a sharp knife, soldering iron or a very small screwdriver to knock out a pin).

There’s a bit of a knack to getting a reliable scan, but it works remarkably well.

I’ve been meaning to post this pic for a while - finally, I have a (tenuously) cat-related post.
