People who purchase the new Samsung Exclaim may be surprised to note that they will get something extra as Scanbuy has added its ScanLife 2D barcode app, making the Samsung Exclaim the first mobile device to be shipped with ScanLife technology in the U.S.

ScanLife allows users to scan 2D (two-dimensional) barcodes with a standard camera phone to automatically display a specific mobile Web site, launch a video, and more. A user can then view and share that information through social networking communities; Samsung Exclaim will also feature social networking applications such as Facebook and MySpace.

“This is an enormous milestone for the development and adoption of mobile barcode technology in the United States,” said Jonathan Bulkeley, chief executive officer of Scanbuy. “The demand for this technology by users and publishers has been growing rapidly, and placing the ScanLife application into new phones will make the experience easier than ever.”
