Have you ever been in a book shop looking and in the back of your head wanted to know what the price of that book is at your favorite online shops just to be sure you know? Well my friends here is the reason thousands on people love their iPhones.
RedLaser let’s you easily setup just that type of deal using your iPhone camera and the barcode on the book and an online book shopping service like Alibris and customized comparison shopping is yours.
You can set it up for other types of shopping too. I bet your Sony or Kindle won’t comparison shop for you.
UPDATE! Redlaser iPhone App now lets you scan a book at the store and using WorldCat.org shows you all the libraries in the area that have that book on the shelf and the hours they are open etc.
