There are so many scanners on the market to-day that there is no shortage of choice. However...they are not all the same.The Agfa E20 portays this to a point with its plethora of facilities and capabilities...and all for under 100.00 (u.k.)
The Agfa E20 scans at photo quality (Thats about 1200x 1200 pixels per inch). Like all scanners these days tha Agfa E20 comes with the necessary software to use with O.C.R. (thats optical Character Recognition) which means that you can basically put a printed text douccument into the scanner and the text will be read by it and re-formatted into text for just about any wordprocessing software on the market. This means that one no longer has to type written or typed text into the computer by hand.

This Scanner is simple to use and comes with all the leads needed for use. The software supplied is of high grade and will turn even the meekest of computers into a virtual photographich studio.
I paid 100.00 u.k. and think that that was an exceptional bargain, in comparison with some other scaners available on the market to-day.
Advantages: Cheap, good quality Disadvantages: None
I got the Snapscan E20 a few months a go for only £70 and it has proved to be a great scanner. It is USB so couldn't be easier to install, just plug it in, pop in a CD and away you go.
The software is easy to use, and includes a photo editing and printing facility, aswell as an OCR option which basically means you can take take written text from paper and put it in to MS Word or another similar program.
The scanner has a great resolution, 1200x1200 ...
