Yeah, it's the barcode scanning that particularly appeals -- though of course a good many of my academic books don't have barcodes, just the ISBN written out. The other thing that would be very keen is the tagging system; I do have a genre field, but it's not terribly fine-grained, and ideally I'd like to be able to sort by "fiction" AND by "SFF" or "romance" or "18c" or what have you. And it might be handy to have it online so I can consult it at home OR from school (or from afar!).
I can already consult the catalogue whilst standing in the bookstore now that I've figured out how to upload the Access db to my PDA; but I could easily do the same thing with LT -- just export and upload a tab-delimited text file or something.
Hmmm. I can't tell whether I really want to do this or I just like the idea of having a cat-shaped barcode scanner. *g*
