Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I recently purchased the infoscan and must say that it pales in comparison to its competitors. I own 2 C-Pens that are similar to the infoscan and they are much better. The essential problem with the infoscan is that the turnaround time (ie. the time required for the scanned information to be stored into the pen's memory) is too long. It takes 2-3 seconds per line of scanned text which is frustrating when scanning any amount of text (in contrast, the C-Pens (600C and 800C) only take about a second). The character recognition is average (about 90-95% versus the 95+% with the C-Pens). The screen is of lower resolution and quality. The ergonomics are not as good (poor button placement and a larger overall device).
One additional note, the manufacturer will not accept returns of their product if not bought directly from them.
In summary, most of these issues are minor with the exception of the turnaround time which makes this item pale in comparison to the C-Pen product line. These devices are great when they work well (C-Pen) and frustrating when they work poorly (Wizcom).
