...For those who's business card collections occupy a 3-inch binder, insist on digitizing everything, or are just too lazy to type contact information into a personal information manager (PIM), Corex created the CardScan. Included with the scanner is an information management application and an impressive OCR (Opticle Charector Recognition) engine that converts cards' information to text. It does however some at a high price, around £240.
The mid-size unit connects to your parallel port and features a pass-through connection for your printer. During the software setup, I encountered a minor problem that I emailed to Corex's tech support. Impressively, I received a helpful response the next day.
When a card is inserted, the unit automatically scans it. You can keep feeding cards and the software will patiently save each one and wait until...

Advantages: A clever invention Disadvantages: Expensive
...if by any chance you hit it and it falls on the floor (well to be precise as long as you have a carpet….)
This item gets connected into your pc via a black cable and you are meant to download a program that goes with it (it comes in a CD rom). In all this took the IT person 10 minutes max to install which I think is pretty good. When the cardscan is not properly connected a red light comes on but once all is in order you will see a reassuring green light (basically meaning "All ok, you can now use me!").
I did not need to read a manual to be able to use this, just insert a business card facing up and this machine takes it and in 3 seconds max it reads the information and transfers it into your pc. The best thing to do is to build a path the information follows so that what you scan goes straight into a specific folder you might want...

Advantages: Super reliable, cheap Disadvantages: boot issues
...Let's get to the bottom line first - buy this without hesitation if you want a decent motherboard at a top price. I upgraded not so long ago and bought this board, and although it wasn't my first option, I havn't regretted it since.
It supports DDR 400 up to a maximum of 1.5gb and a CPU speed of up up to 2.4Ghz. With plenty of features, a great price and reliability, it's almost faultless. ALMOST. All because of one niggling fault.
The main problem, and the only problem, i've had with this board is its refusal to boot up my mouse and keyboard. Amazingly, the instuction booklet did help. It directed me straight to Asus' website where i downloaded a new bios for it. After flashing it with the new bios I haven't had any more problems.
What it comes down to is, how big of a problem this is to you. Personally, I recommend this card...

Motorola Razr2 V8:
When this phone came out of the box, my first thought was 'WOW, that's fantastic!'. My second thought was 'If this works as well as it looks then I'm ecstatic!'. This is the first time I have bought a phone online without seeing it in more
