ShopSavvy on Palm Pre and Pixi
More and more of you are buying the Palm Pre (IMHO pretty cool phone) and you want to know if we are going to port ShopSavvy for the Pre and the Pixi. We get the question enough I thought a blog post and FAQ link was called for.
Currently we believe there is no way to access the camera in a way necessary to scan a barcode. If you know of a way we can access it at a frame rate of more than 5 frames per second please comment on this post ASAP.
That being said we assume that Palm will eventually create an API that will allow developers to access the camera allowing for Augmented Reality AND Barcode Scanning. When they do we WILL port ShopSavvy to the platform. Until then we will wait patiently. Again, if you learn of a way we can access the camera please comment.
