Amazon.com Product Description:
Weighing in at less than 12 ounces and measuring just 11 inches wide, the Pentax DSmobile lets you carry around all you need to scan everything from a business card to an 8.5 by 14 inch document. The scanner draws power from its USB interface so no clunky AC adapter is needed. Bring it along with you and you can instantly transmit a printed page via email, fax, or the web. The scanner has a hardware optical resolution of 300 dpi and the included OCR software automatically converts the document to editable text.

The scanner uses a Contact Image Sensor (CIS) to achieve its smaller volume and lighter weight, and also requires less power consumption and lower maintenance than a traditional CCD. The DSmobile has few moving parts, which promotes high reliability and nearly maintenance-free operation. It consumes only 0.2 watt of power in standby mode and a maximum of 2.2 watts of power when scanning. The Pentax DSmobile 600 Scanner is compatible with Windows 98, Windows ME, Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Linux. It is backed by a 1-year warranty.

Rating : - Great size, great find- especially for traveling!!
After returning from business trips with envelopes and stacks of receipts to expense, I had been looking for a portable scanner so that they could be easily be managed. This small scanner works great. It comes with a pouch and is the size of a traveling umbrella.

The installation was easy and has worked without incident. I scan receipts, meeting notes and handouts and can forward and file on the spot, great productivity.
