"The Socket OrganizeIT™ Suite is an industry first – offering a complete solution to manage a library of music and video using the Socket SDIO In-Hand Scan Card (ISC) with your favorite mobile device. Socket OrganizeIT™ Suite software features three applications with an easy to use interface. The software application in conjunction with the SDIO ISC scans UPC bar codes and retrieves valuable data on the web to complete a comprehensive database of music and video. Information can be synchronized between Pocket PC and Palm OS mobile devices and the desktop PC for easy management. Wireless capable mobile devices can upload data in real-time."

At $299 USD, this isn't for the mere hobbyist, but if you're serious about cataloguing your CDs and DVDs, this is a killer solution. The kit includes an SD-based bar code scanner, and the client software that will take those bar codes and look them up online to build your catalogue. I wonder what the interface is like? Scanning the bar codes is the easy part for a company like Socket Communications - creating fast, powerful, and easy to use software is the hard part. It's not available yet - you can pre-order it from Mobile Planet and it's expected to ship December 30th. [Affiliate]
