THE BUSINESS CARD COLLECTOR
The new product called Scan in Dex allows you to take thoes
business cards you collect every day and scan the information
directly into your personal information manager (PIM). The
program creates 400 DPI black and white images of business cards
and then converts the data into fielded text that can be imported
into applications such as ACT or Lotus Organizer, and PackRat.
If you don't have a PIM, the Scan in Dex software also acts as a
minidatabase and lets you decide if you want to store the
business card information as a scanned image or as converted
text.
The scanner itself is compact measuring 2.1 by 6.65 by 6 inches
and weighs less then 2 pounds. The downfall is that is requires
an expansion slot rather than attaching to a serial or parallel
port.
A great desktop utility in today's business world.
