1.0 out of 5 stars Won't work with Windows XP, January 5, 2006

This seemed like a good idea but it is a parallel port TWAIN device and there aren't any drivers for Windows XP. Went to several sites for Drivers (even Polaroid) and none available. Even Polaroid states that this product is discontinued and they will not ever make Windows XP drivers.

This is another product by a fly-by-night company without buyer support. Like one of the other reviewers I bought one in 2006 and it will not work with a computer running Microsoft XP. XP has been the standard for at least six (6) years. Like other companies Roid should have removed these unusable products from retailer's shelves. Both Budweiser and the grocery store remove expired products, why not this company? There are no updates that will work with the XP and it has 97% of the computer market. If I had bought this from Amazon I am sure that my money would be refunded without even having to return this nonworking artifact. I am sure that now that Windows Vista has been released none of Polaroid's current product will work with it or be supported with updated drivers for Vista.
