Hmmm, I don't think any PC made right now could keep up with the flood of data that taking 500 images per second would generate. There's not even any communications protocol that I know of that would deliver that much data to the PC for processing, even if the computer could do it. In a few years, though, who knows? They might have to build a scaled-down version for PC's that would be more manageable, but would still be much better and faster than what we have now.

Wonder if it will work with K1000 and other software like Openbook.

This scanner sounds awesome. Too bad I just bought another opticbook, sigh. 
It seems like every time I fall in love with a piece of technology, along
comes another one in short order that is even more delectable than the last. 
Alas, a sign of the times.

Sounds like it will be a few years before it's available, but sure could 
help us get more books up when it does become available.
