I purchased a Panther last spring, and while it was more complicated
than the Dolphin and did more than I needed, it did work very well.
Much harder to set up and download scans, though.

Subject: TARGET Scanner to replace Follett Dolphin
Dear LM_NETTERS,
I checked the archives and was unable to find the answer to this
question. I received a letter from Follett stating that the manufacturer
is discontinuing production of the PHD Dolphin barcode scanner and that
Follett would only honor warranty and EMA coverage until December 31,
2008.
Follett suggests replacing the unit. They included a flyer with a new
product "Follett Panther" with special pricing of only $1,595 with a
regular cost of $1,795.
I was wondering if anyone has replaced a Dolphin scanner from a source
other than Follett and would share how well the scanner worked.
I am sure I am not the only person facing this problem. I will be happy
to post a hit if the needs warrants.
Thank you for your help and have a happy and safe Thanksgiving.
