Nice tool, poor support. March 7, 2007

I've debated whether to give this product a 3 or 4 star rating. I'm not feeling generous, so I'll give it a 3. I take issue with this product not because of its capabilities (it compares favorably with similar products) but with its lack of manuals of any kind, a poorly burned demo CD that wouldn't read in either of my computer's optical drives, and a Web site that was less than helpful (no manuals).
After I managed to find the correct version of the driver for my Dell Axim 50v, I had to remember how to install a CAB file without having an installation program. Simple answer - copy it to the device, find it with the file explorer, and click on it. Not exactly intuitive for an install.
Then there was the fact that for a short while, my Axim was convinced this was a modem. After a few tries with the newly installed driver and keyboard emulator for the scanner, it was correctly recognized and now I can happily scan. Scans are quick, accurate, and have a great range.
The rating will plummet should I find any issues with reliability, but I have a feeling it will be fine. If you can wade through the installation, I'm fairly certain that this scanner will perform adequately. Just don't think it will be a walk in the park getting it up and running. You might even consider looking at another brand before purchasing this one.
