I'm evaluating platforms and technologies for a mobile barcode-driven application. This app would scan existing ISBN barcodes on the back of books. I'd love to build this on the iPhone SDK, but I haven't found a satisfactory way of reading barcodes. Ideally I would use a USB-style connection and hook up an external barcode reader (or maybe a bluetooth barcode reader).

I've also seen some posts on 1D barcode reading through the camera, but have not seen anyone get it working. I'd be interested if anyone has seen something that I've missed, or would be able to consult/assist in this.
