A solution for Macs? Not quite all there. Sep 15, 2007
By G. Ware Cornell Jr.
"anotherlawyer"
A Mac friendly business card scanner would seem like a no-brainer. The object is to load contact information directly into the address book. OCR recognition must be good or what is the point?
So this scanner has very good OCR capabilities and some neat features-like it is a fully functional 400dpi image scanner for all those vacation prints you have around.
It installs easily and is portable enough to carry around in your laptop case.
So what's not to like? The interface is a bit clunky and counter-intuitive. To save to your address book you must first add it as an application (it should be the default application for the Mac version) and hit the send button or else it is lost forever. As to images I am still not sure where they get saved-perhaps iPhoto or the Library needs to be added. Since the image scan is not why I bought this scanner, it is not that important to me right now.
Additionally it has a multiple card scan feature that I have yet to figure out. The documentation is only fair, so experimentation is the order of the day. IRIS needs to do something about this. Also the feeder will mis-feed if you aren't careful. Not a big deal, you just hit continue, delete the card and re-feed.

Works like it says Sep 18, 2007
By Only Accuracy Heard mixed results regarding these but purchased this with a laptop for my new business. Stellar early delivery from amazon, nice work amazon! This card scanner works great and I even run photos through it. Does what is says, that's a rarity these days! It even works good on my wife's macpro notebook which is why we purchased this brand seeing there was no others with WIN-MAC compatibility that we could find. I would recommend.

Mac owners should avoid Jan 16, 2008
By ZMed
"Medical Ventures"
I ordered this as one of the few Apple-compatible business card scanners. I ended up returning it due to the awful software (Both Apple OSX 10.4 Tiger and 10.5 Leopard, for which a patch is needed). While the OCR worked fine, the application quits so often that I was never able to scan more than 8 cards at a time and continually lost the data. Also, the software does not create it's own database or file, so you have to immediately export to VCF/Outlook/Address formats. Very disappointing product!

Don't try installing on Windows XP Mar 06, 2010
By Jeffrey D. Kimball Though instructions are given for Windows XP installation, they only lead to frustration. I was almost ready to send the product back, but decided to try installation with Windows 7. Installation was quick and easy. No problems, and now everything works as promised.

Defective, poor support for Vista Dec 19, 2007
By The Gadget Freak
"Jim"
Their tech support is ignorant to Vista and the product driver is not Vista certified even though it's written with Vista all over product package. Well, here's the bottom line, their software doesn't work with Vista. Their support people only have access to a Mac. I spent 1+ hour trying to troubleshoot what's going on yet the rep didn't know what he was talking about as he didn't have a PC in front of him. They asked me to install a 80mb "patch" to update CD that came with the software yet still failed. This product is going back to Amazon.
