I haven't seen a cell phone that CANT read them. A lot of people even have them on business cards. For that matter, McDonalds even puts them on the wrappers of burgers so you can read nutrition content. Kind of a cool idea in my opinion.

Is it the same thing, do you think? Oh, and I think yours says "Beer Time". This looks like the image that was sent to my cellphone when I did Mobile Check-in before my Air Canada flight last month.

Hopefully this will come to Beijing one day :-) http://www.duanestorey.com

Seriously though, check out <a href="http://www.imatrix.lt/default.aspx?page=about" rel="nofollow">iMatrix</a> for the iPhone...pretty cool...too bad there isn't much QR action happening on this continent.
