Wizcom QuickLink SuperPen

Summary: Superpen not so super
Review: This pen was a gift and if I had bought it, I would try to get a refund especially after discovering that it costs so much! it is useless. First of all, scanning is tedious and slow.This would probably work fine for scanning inventory numbers etc. But for text paragraphs, too much trouble.I am a computer systems analyst and this thing was a pain in the neck to get working.

Summary: Useful for grad school and anyone who reads a lot.
Review: This scanner is convenient for those who need to remember large amounts of information. You can use it in place of taking notes while reading textbooks. Also, if you want to copy short passages, it can be quicker than just photocopying the whole page. One of the most helpful features is that you can beam scanned notes to your computer or organizer. There is a learning curve, so you will need to spend some time to be able to get accurate scans. I have not tried out the foreign language dictionaries, but it seems like these could potentially be a big help with translation.
