Portable scanner is one of the earliest scanner in the market. I've seen a monochrome portable scanner more than 10 years ago. At that time, I was amazed such small thing can do.
You may ask why use a portable scanner? Why not digital camera?
Reason is simple, its convenient for travelers as well as other people who stays at home. Since its portable, its small in size and light as well. Forget the huge bulky scanners, this small portable scanner only weighs 14 oz or 390 grams. The thing about digital camera is too shoot scenery and more to things that is big, for documents scanner is still the most ideal option. Its also ideal for laptop users as it uses a USB 2.0 connection as well, no external power needed. It is also a A4 sheet-fet scanner with a power pack resolution of 600 dpi in color. One more thing, by using USB 2.0, with a click of its launch button, its starts your imaging application instantly. Can forget the old conventional way of clicking one by one to open the application.
Portable scanner also comes with bundled softwares with DocShell and Scan2Contacts.
DocShell is an easy to use application that offer documents scanning and export the scanned image into existing, pre-installed application on the user's pc (PDF,Microsoft paint etc.). The scanned document can be saved to one or any of the following image types which includes BMP, JPG, TIF, PSD, PCX, PNG or TGA. Most of this image files are often used. Normally I would use TGA for my high res work and JPEG for my low res work.
Scan2Contacts is a business-card scanning module for MS Outlook®. With Scan2Contacts, you needn't to key in contacts, such scan it with portable scanner. I always remember storing a physical name card is tough, looks like portable scanner is a solution to my problem.
So for college or university students, execs, portable and home users, ScanShell 2000N portable scanner is the best solution to your problem!
