I sort of wanted one, but won't pay that type of price for one.I primarily wanted it since it might let me look at things like my computer's bios screens etc. since it wouldn't require an operating system to be running.
The alternative I haven't gotten around to testing yet is to try putting thin tracing paper over the screen and then trying to take a photo of it using either my phone, or my KNFB reader classic to try perform OCR on the picture, but the opticon might be more useful in real time, but anyway...
