RonJust thought - your friend might like to consider the following: http://www.knfbreader.com/
From I understand, there's a version which works on a Smart Phone, and also a stand-alone device.

Thanks Mark and Paul. My friend is looking for a scanner which doesn't need acomputer. There must be one around?

It is roughly the size of a 17 inch laptop, and just as thin. Worked hard for about 18 months or more. No real problems, but as you know, the luck ofthe draw on individual chunks of hardware is rather random.

This scanner has no power cable...itspowered from the PC when plugged into the USB port. I've had mine for about sixyears now.
