You will probably always bump into situations having to digitally copy some documents. A camera phone or digital camera will usually fail to meet your requirement, as you can’t capture the full page of the document. A portable scanner is definitely a better device for you to easily scan the full page of the documents.
Here comes the CopyCat handheld scanner, which comes portable enough for you to carry around anywhere you go. The device is battery operated. It can capture books, magazine pages, photos, text and virtually any document in just matter of seconds. The scanned document will be stored onto the microSD card (up to 32GB) inserted in the scanner.
The CopyCat scanner is capable of storing up to 30,000 pages, and scanning at 600 dpi for color images. It also comes with OCR software that does the image to text conversion, making it easily searchable and editable in Word, Excel etc. The CopyCat scanner is priced at $127 and available on Firebox for purchase. If you want one, just hit the “Buy now” button below.

It is perfect for all the journalist like me to scan some papers and transfer to a PC. The microSD card is the best part of the Copycat hand held scanner. We don’t need to get the papers and bring it at home we can scan it just by using this kind of device.
