Hello all,

For those of you who are seeking good scanners for K1K scanning, please see
the following message from Stephen Baum.  Especailly if you are unable to
find the Epson Perfection 3170 scanner, this model may seem like a real
alternative.  Recent Epson scanner models tend to be quite slow compared to
the 1660, 1650, and 3170.

Hope this helps.

Hi everyone.

We just retested the Plustek OpticBook 3600, which is the only 
commercially available scanner with a book edge. Using the latest 
patch, brightness now works, and the problem with the lamp's warm up 
time has been reduced significantly. As a consequence, this scanner 
is now highly recommended, and we'll change our web site to reflect that.

The patch is at  http://www.plustek.com/download/ob3600.htm

The description of the patch is rather misleading, and is as follows:

  "Patch for the following issues,
1, MS Office 2003 compatible problem
2, Unable to perform larger size scan problem
Win98 / Me / 2K / XP    20th February, 2006     2.31 MB"

Stephen
