1 out of 5 stars Takes too Much Time - Bad Results   September 20, 2008
Desktop Music, LLC (Pleasant Valley, CT)
We really tried to give this product a chance but it just does not do the job for us. As many reviewers have said, you spend way too much time correcting! We changed setting and tried everything recommended by the product and by other reviewers. Two of us practiced for at least a week and neither of us had much luck. It was rare when the scan came out with the correct results. We found much better luck with an HP scanner using OCR.


2 out of 5 stars Good Concept, terrible product.   August 31, 2008

I received this in hopes that I could scan text from books to create concise notes to study from quickly and accurately, I was wrong though. This product did not scan text accurately, actually did not come close and while it is a great concept I am highly dissappointed in the performance of this pen scanner especially at a cost of about $180. There is a lot of work still to be done to make this a quality product which can save time and allow for quick accurate scans and I really hope that there are companies who are working to make this happen but for now it is not worth the money or hassle, I guess I'll just have to type all my material or find pdf or electronic versions of my books if at all possible. At least I tried........very dissappointed!


5 out of 5 stars Every student needs one   August 15, 2008

Im a 2nd year grad students and this pen has been the most amazing help to me. I take it along with my laptop to the library and just scan the information that i need. I don't have to lug books back and forth. Everything is really just a scan away. It beats have to type the notes in by hand. I think it really is a must have for anyone in college.


5 out of 5 stars Does what its supposed to do   July 25, 2008
C. Martin (Atlanta, GA)
I bought this product with the hopes that it could cut some of my workload in half. And it did exactly just that. Using the pen, I was able to scan all the text that I needed into my computer in no time as opposed to having to type all that information in. It took me a couple of minutes in the beginning to figure out the right way to scroll and scan and calibrate, but once I did, I used the pen without a hitch for the most part. I need to scan barcodes for my job which is why I opted for the executive version. If you just need to scan text then the express 6 will be good enough for you. All in all its a good product, especially once you master it.


4 out of 5 stars Left handed on a mac   May 5, 2008

I bought this originally to get some UPC information into my MacBook laptop without having to type. The first night I had this on my computer, I couldn't get it to work no matter how much I calibrated it. However, after finding out that I had to hold the pen still on a piece of paper while calibrating, it worked almost flawlessly afterwards.
In my classes, I can use it easily to quote essays with very good accuracy. For left handed use, they set it so I swipe the pen from the right side of the page to the left, which is much a much smoother motion. The only drawback happens when I get to the end of a line where the pen becomes creative. If the formatting n the paper that I quote off of puts a dash at the end of a line, the pen will try to make the partial word into a word in it's built in dictionary.
All in all, a GREAT value, and I am very pleased with this product.
