Hello Scott:

     I think the reason the HoverCam based system has trouble is because it 
will take a picture as fast as you can turn a page and push a key. You an feed 
images at a rate of 3 seconds. This is faster than the OCR can process them.

Regards,

Robert

Hi Robert.
I also wonder if the system would be able to keep up with the newer
Mac systems. I have a Macbook Air that I purchased in September, and
wonder if I would have better look with it. When I have the time, ha
ah, I'll have to try the 7 day trial and see how it works out. I don't
have the hover camera, but have an HP AIO scanner/printer. Thanks for
pointing the article out to me, you'd think I would have remembered
it, since I contributed to the blog myself. LOL.
