Do you know of any cheapish scanners? I was planning on buying one to develop some applications for data collections via barcode and such but finding a cheapish scanner was hard, like $250~ was the average price. Quite costly to do some research and program testing.

The cheapest scanner I knew of was from Radio Shack a few years back in the form of a ScanKat. Looked like a cat laying down. They were given away. Most were serial, but some were released in the USB version. There were hacks posted on web sites to use them as scanners instead of what they were intended for.
