Thank you to everyone for the scanner recommendations. This has certainly helped me to narrow down the list of possibilities from the overwhelming choice on the FS scanner page. There seem to be several current models of the Epson scanner, the V100, V200 and V350. I will have to investigate to see what the differences are. The Plustek does seem to be an interesting, although much more substantial, alternative though. Thanks again, Caroline. -----Original Message----- From: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Graham Page Sent: 06 November 2007 16:46 To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [access-uk] Re: New Scanner For OpenBook the plustek Optibook is also a damn good scanner as well, but I was thinking of a direct replacement for the 1660 which is not book edge. Still, if you do want to scan books then the Plustek Optibook 3600 is definitely the one to go for.
