Thanks, Larry and Sandi! I wondered if the OpticBook might be my best option. I have an opportunity to buy a used 3600... Does anyone know if there's a significant difference between the two models? Thanks again for your help!

I second Larry's recommendation. I have done many thousands of pages with my OpticBook 3800 and K1000. I have had the scanner three years, and have never had a problem with it. It's a real workhorse, the book-edge feature lets you get all the letters in the margins in books where they're squished in, and the scans are phenomenal. Not perfect, but I've used several other scanners, and this one with K1000 is the closest to perfect I've ever come.

Hi. I find the Kurzweil scanner page to be very old and ut of date. Many of us are using the Plustech Opticbook 3800 book-edge scanner and liking it very much. It runs a bit more than many epsons selling for $239 or so but I think it well worth the cost.

Hi, all! It looks like my faithful Epson scanner didn't weather my recent move very well, so I need a new one. I have the KNFB reader for my iPhone, but I'm not sure how well it does with books. Does anyone have suggestions for scanners that work well with K1000? I'm going to check Kurzweil's website as well... Hopefully, they still have that page that talks about how compatible different scanners are with it. But any suggestion is appreciated! <Smile> Thanks! Jana _____ No virus found in this message.
