Caught a podcast about a camera-based OCR unit, and I'm wondering if anyone 
knows of an accessible way of using a Mac similarily.

Here's what I'd love

Some sort of mount or bracket that would hold the page right in the right place 
in front of the camera, and a simple way to take the picture and dump it to an 
OCR program that works with such images. I'm using a MacBook Air 11 inch.

here's where someone says, that already exists, here's the link.

Any progress on a usable OCR app for iPhone?

Peace,

Ian
