We recently ran into a situation with a customer who was uploading very large validation files to a Dolphin 7600.  The customer was having sporadic problems where the uploaded file would not be completely uploaded.  We discovered that the size of the truncated file was always the same as the amount of free space on the device before the upload.  It turns out that when overwriting the file, the device did not reclaim the free space immediately, so the new file had to fit in the remaining space.  We solved the problem by using the DeleteFile function before uploading the new files, which did allow the device to reclaim the free space.

We've added a Knowledge Base Article about this topic, and we will address it in a future release by automatically deleting files before receiving them.

We have scheduled our latest hands-on training seminar for ITScriptNet.  This training will be held on April 9th and 10th at the Disney's Coronado Springs Resort in Orlandio, Florida.  The training will cover Application Development and Sales topics, and will include sneak previews of some of our newest products for this year.

You can find out more on our Training page, including the sign up form.  We hope to see you there!

We are pleased to announce that ITScriptNet version 2.4 has been released.  This new version adds clients for Datalogic devices, GPS functionality, new functions, and more.  All of the details can be found here.

Download a demo and try it out.  As always, upgrades from previous versions are at no charge!

Z-Space is now distributing ITScriptNet directly to Blue Star.  From a resellers perspective nothing has changed.  ITScriptNet is still available from all current sources.  This opens the door for us to directly support Blue Star for all ITScriptNet products and sales and opens a channel for us to distribute our boxed solutions as they become available.

Intermec has released a new device, the CK61ex.  Here is the product page.  This device looks similar to a CK31, but can be configured with either Windows CE or Windows Mobile 5.  What's interesting about this device is the EX Imager, which Intermec claims can allow scanning 1D or 2D barcodes from 6 inches to 50 feet.  This would allow using 2D barcodes in warehousing applications that previously required 1D codes and a laser.

ITScriptNet currently has native client support for the CK31, CN2B, and CN3.  We'll take a look at this new device as well, to see if it is compatible with one of the existing clients or the generic client, or if a native client is needed.
