Consumer review (currys.co.uk)
Neat size and scans really quickly and easily.
Price, could be slightly cheaper.
Consumer review (argos.co.uk)
Perfect for digitalising 4 shelves of papers. I love mine, but look elsewhere if you want high quality colour scans. Device is sleek, tiny, lightweight, easy to use, quiet and quick with one micro USB cable. For computers without disk drives, drivers...
