I bumbled across Julie’s review of the DocuPen and I thought that would be a nifty compromise to the long scan time of the desktop scanner versus the mechanical finesse required to build a DIY book scanner. I also spent some time looking through several DIY book reader web sites (, for example) and while those devices could speed up the scanning time, building such a contraption is out of my technical skills and patience level. And yes, I DO happen to be the laziest person on the planet. Plus, it required booting up my PC, logging on, waiting for boot up, firing up the scanner software, yada, yada and yada. It just took too long per scanned page and I had to sit in front of or very near my desk for several hours. But after spending several hours scanning an out-of-print book that was falling apart using my standard Epson desktop scanner a few weeks ago, my enthusiasm faded. I have an e-book reader I’m finding that I want to put everything that I have that is on paper into the device: books, magazine articles, users/owners manuals, cheat-sheets, blah, blah and blah.
