I am looking at integrating a C# application with a barcode scanner.

The last time I did this was with Delphi 1 (win 3.11) using a scanner that plugged in-line into the keyboard cable.

Looking around it appears most scanners are USB based these days and assume they emulate keyboard entry.

Anybody know of more sophisticated/programmable scanner that can call a webservice or even just do a basic POST/GET this would eliminate the C# application and the computer to support it?
