Hello Laura Ann, There has been a discussion on the Kurzweil list and as more and more people are getting the OpticBook 3600 it is definitely sounding like an excellent choice for a new scanner. Plus you can still use it as a flat bed.

I validated them and it looks like that is the only reason they are back in step one. If someone wants to validate some easy books go for it. The authors are Ted Dekker Bill Myers Debra White Smith Lynn Cote Tim LaHaye, Bob Phillips Terri Blackstock Bill Bright, Ted Dekker Tim Downs Randall Arthur I didn't know there was such a problem if it was done correctly validating books I had scanned. I have done it off and on during the past year thinking it was helping add books to the library. I have read a lot of these but not all of them but know they are complete scans of the entire book from front to back covers. I had extra time this past week and was just trying to help build the collection but I guess all the time and efforts I put into that were in vain since they are back on the down load validate page. I wasn't aware that we were not suppose to self validate at all I just thought it was suggested not a law. I know now. and will be very careful what I do volunteer wise from now on.
