1. An apparatus for collecting and processing information bearing indicia (IBI) comprising:

  • a hand held housing;

    a converter for converting light reflected off an IBI into IBI signals representative of the IBI;

    a first processor configured for running a first signal process for processing the IBI signals if the IBI is of a first type; and

    a second processor configured for running a second signal process for processing the IBI signals if the IBI is of a second type,wherein the first processor and second processor run the first and second signal processes in parallel and independent of each other, andwherein at least a portion of the processing may be achieved via multiprocessing, where different processing threads run simultaneously on the same processor.
