5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect document scanner, nearly good enough for pictures., February 22, 2010

By	Anonymous Italian - See all my reviews

I'm a graduate student and I spend a lot of time in libraries poring through books that can't circulate (rare, antique, etc.) Some are not even allowed out of specific parts of the university library. This is the answer! I can just roll the wand over the pages, and then I can study the text in the comfort and convenience of my house. I will add a picture of a scanned page for review as a product image. I'll never go back.

Oh, it does eat batteries, but who cares...AAs are cheap.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good hand held scanner, March 1, 2010

These still have a way to go, but it is the best I have tried. It would be better if it would have the option to save in PDF rather than only JPEG.
I am buying a second one to give to my son who will also use it in business.

5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding, February 26, 2010

By	Max Davidson - See all my reviews

I bought this scanner for the purpose of scanning pages out of law books at the library. After about two minutes' practice, it was a cinch. In fifteen minutes I was able to scan 30 pages' research, and later downloaded it all to my laptop as .PDF files. The resolution is great, and the scan quality was good enough to use in powerpoint presentations after cropping and magnifying with Microsoft Picture Manager. You can't get scans out of books with a page-fed portable, and a desktop model is too big to carry. Light years better than waiting for the library photocopier.
