Cyclops  is a free handheld barcode scanner for your iPhone 3Gs.

When you are on the go, scan barcodes on items you see and Cyclops will read them and search for product and pricing information online from Amazon right away for you.

Simply open up Cyclops and click the Scan button. Take a picture of the barcode, and Cyclops does the rest, identifying the item you are looking at and providing up to the minute product and pricing information.

Cyclops requires the camera on the new iPhone 3Gs to work, older iPhone versions are not supported at this time.
