I have one that I'm giving as a gift. It's defective (light leaks) and will be exchanged once Costco gets more stock. I tried out a barcode scanner app and it works great.

After seeing your pics - they're too fuzzy - I still stand by my original statement. It's a joke. If I had a touch, I'd still have to carry a cam with me. If picture quality didn't matter, then my old-style flip phone is adequate.

Keep in mind, if I had my own touch, I wouldn't carry it on a daily basis. I look upon the touch as primarily a pocket PC that would be great for traveling. It would never get used as an MP3 player (I have a Sansa Clip+ I always carry for that). The cams would only be used for video chats, barcode scans, and identification apps. Since the display is too small, video would be limited to cartoons and short comedy clips; and reading books on it would be a joke.
