Cheers for the feedback guys. I guess ideally what I am after is a digital camera on an arm like the one you get as part of the Eye-Pal package. THe benefit of that is you just pop your page under it and it snaps a digital photo which means that you can theoretically scan a letter in a second. The downsides are that Eye-Pal costs about £1800, it only works on Windows and the software is awful. The camera scanner is a cool idea though and must be fairly cheap to make as has no moving parts, wonder why no mainstream manufacturers sell them. I am very impatient when scanning letters and find flatbeds to be frustratingly slow. > > Click on the link below to go to our homepage. > http://www.icanworkthisthing.com > > Manage your subscription by using the web interface on the link below. > //www.freelists.org/list/macvoiceover > > Users can subscribe to this list by sending email to > macvoiceover-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > with 'subscribe' in the Subject field OR by logging into the Web > interface at //www.freelists.org/list/macvoiceover >
