[Electronics-Talk] Scanner

[evelyn weckerly]

Tom,


I got my first computer because of kurzweil 1000.  I have the 
first cell phone lersion of KNFB reader mobile and will soon have 
the current one which will run on a Braille Note Touch.  I look 
at the two as being complimentary.  In the knfb mobile as I 
understand it now, you cannot do more than 50 pages per file 
people you have to store nr files in Dropbox.  If I'm reader
a many-page magaoine or book and/or something long I want to 
keep, I want to kse K1000.  Once one has made the K1000 pkraase, 
upgrades remain the same price whesr you skip any or not.  I've 
had K1000 for almost 19 years and want to keep it with a good 
scanner.

Evelnn

Tracy,
I have heard of many people buying the KNFB reader ap for maybe a 
$100 and
then a for lack of a better term a holder or box to hold the 
smart phone so
proper light and distance for maybe another $50, not sure.  If 
this can work
and you have the phone, now there is a portable option for $150

I guess I need to buy a new scanner.  My old Epson works 
perfectly well, but
won't connect to my Windows 7 PC, and the PC it does connect to 
has just
died.

I want a scanner to scan music and books.  I need it to handle 
legal-size
paper.  I need it to interface well with Kurzweil and Sharpeye, 
my
music-scanning software.I would prefer not to spend more than 
$200.What do
people have they're happy with?

Tracy
