Hi Debs
I just found it aggravatingly slow and not particularly accurate either,
least not as accurate and nifty as ReadEasy Move. Still, different animals
I guess.

Easy enough to delete though, but I get what you mean.
It doesn't like having too much information at one time either so could only
do a few pages at a time.
Don't understand the extra light thing from a previous message though. I'm
sure the instructions say to keep away from additional light and I found it
worked better that way.
