Symbol scanners have scanning issue

[jwith5496]

I was onsite yesterday and the Symbol LS2208 scanner I installed in November wasn't scanning properly. Contacted Symbol and was informed they had a flash issue and to send it in for RMA. Only problem is the customer will be without use of scanner for 10 more days. They have no advanced replacement unless unit is under contract

Though they have been around forever and are no doubt still the undisputed king of all thing scanning, we have had issues with some their products too. They make a pretty cool handheld for commercial enviroments, which works well--when it works. I've had some issues with them. Someone else reported to me at one point that about 40-50$ of the ones they purchased had a problem with the network cards (usually right out the box or shortly after) that essentially rendered them useless. I was not happy to hear this.
