Does the pen read ISBN #'s? I want to enter books into Amazon or database w/ISBN's NOT barcodes!

I had one before, but it does not work well at all. The scan results is about 70% only.

It only displays an English keyboard (in a strange layout), but typing with a different layout than displayed works, as it just sends keycodes, not the characters - just don't look at it while typing!

No. Unfortunately there's no pen with the book. I found an inexpensive gold pen at a local party supply shop.

you don't actually make the barcode, the code is printed on the box or container of store bought item (new in the box). There is number that is under the barcode which is the equivalent of the barcode or UPC (universal product code) and upc's can be bought and used for items on amazon that don't exist on amazon yet. The scanner will not scan the number under the barcode, only a barcode. Hope this helps.

I have never felt I needed a digital read out. I have turned a lot of pens, bowls, rolling pins and may other items. I just start out slow and turn the speed up depending on the need.

Perfect question because that is the precise pen I bought to go with the books. Yes it works with it. Just upload the software to the pen for the books of your choice and you'll be set.

I have reviewed the unit, the box, and instructional manual, and do not see the numbers you reference.. The label on the back of the keyboard does not specify any model number or any other identifying information. The box, however, does have a label on it, with the number X000DRBPUP, which may have been put on there by Amazon for inventory purposes. I hope this helps..

I'm not familiar with BookCollectorCZ software, but this device reads bar codes as a string of numbers with an "ENTER" command at the end. Think of it as an extension of your keyboard. One thing to keep in mind, when reading the bar code on books, it reads the 13 digit ISBN, but not the 5 digit add-on code.

Although I use my new and very utilitarian, inexpensive scanner successfully to also sell (new) books, I find that the scanner will only be useful if one is scanning information to a program created and activated to accept the ISBN codes appearing on book jackets or covers. The facility to which one plans and attempts to sell must be set up to accomodate the information one wishes to transmit. My scanner works simply and completely satisfactorily (right out of the box) for such pre-planned purposes. I assume, therefore, that it will likewise function well if used to keep count and title infpormation for other purposes as well.

Yes, I use it to scan ISBN#s from books and other items that I want to list on Amazon. There is no major set up, I just plugged it into my computer USB and my computer read that it was hooked up and it started to work. It will scan a barcode number right into an excel document . This was a very inexpensive item but can make a job go so much faster. Hope this helped. "Fly'n Betty"

You'll have to convert the .mobi (Used by Amazon) to .epub (Used by Slick) format. I use Calibre software to manage my books, the software is free!

If I'm understanding you question, no it doesn't. I will verify and if I find this isn't the case I will update. A few things I've noticed with the scanner; it is truly a plug-n-play scanner, you must click your cursor into the field it won't automatically enter the UPC/ISBN when selecting "Add a Product", and lastly it works sporadically if plugged into a hub, I can only get consistent responses when plugged directly into the laptop USB port.

I don't know what system that kindle uses to store data but if you can transfer the books to a computer and then change the books to text then the noodle can read it. You may have to change it to a word document before you can change it to text.

Essentially, yes. It did this with mine automatically, I believe it can be programmed NOT to do this, but by default it reads the barcode and then hits "enter." Eg, is I read a barcode with my cursor in a google box, it will scan the barcode and do a google search without me hitting "enter"

periwinkles:I may be mistaken, but I believe the previous post you referred to was speaking of a piano keyboard being drawn, not a QWERTY keyboard. I have the pen, and think the piano is more of a demo/gimmick than anything useful. Sorry.

No. You need to manually label the discs with either a printer, sticker press, sharpie marker or lightscribe/labelflash depending on the type or disc you are using. This product only deals with the reading and writing of the data side of a disc.
