I don't think that BP needs the UPC for an Amazon lookup. Just make sure that you map the ISBN and you should be fine. Amazon actually uses ASIN, which should be the same thing. BTW - BP is not so bright about ISBNs (an area readerware shines). If you have dashes, spaces, a lower case 'x', etc, the ...

Scanning woes...

I guess I don't understand why you don't just type the ISBN number manually if scanning is a pain. That's got to be easier than scanning into DL and then porting the data over to BP.

Nice review at mac360

Great. Thank's to mac360, I have yet another piece of bookminder software to evaluate for my collection. So far, I have to say I am impressed with BP's speed.
