Rating: - Good for documents but not for photos
About the size of a small rolling pin and weighing just 12.8 ounces in its cloth carrying pouch this scanner fits easily in a computer bag, is powered by the computer's USB port and does a decent job of scanning documents. One very nice feature is its ability to scan directly into a portable document format (PDF) without the need for owning Adobe Acrobat, but I was unimpressed with its OCR (optical character recognition) software capabilities and the quality of its scanned photos. Aside from creating ... Read More
Rating: - Excel support wonderful and awful
First things first; this product requires Microsoft Office software to work; version 2003 or above. The scanner software will not install if you do not have Office.

The scanner itself is lightweight, and sturdy. It has a "PDF" and a "SCAN" button, and an LED ... Read More
Rating: - Great portable scanner, does the job
I installed this scanner on my 6 month old Dell laptop running Windows XP Pro. The installation was quick and easy, and it integrated automatically into Microsoft Office.
The first document I scanned was a two-page contract. In 20 seconds, I had a PDF version on my computer that I could email to the customer. This alone is worth the price of the product: not having to drive back to the office to use the scanner to make electronic copies of signed contracts.
Rating: - Easy scanning!
I bought the original NeatScan a few months back, so I was eager to see what they had changed in the new version. I was very happy with the new design and features.
The first change I noticed was a small ledge in front of the input slot. This makes it *much* easier to get a document inserted correctly. And there's a little icon that shows you which end of the slot to align the document at, also very handy. However, it's not very clear from the icon that the document goes in face down!
