This could have gone in a couple of categories, but is worth everyone seeing this. And BTW, I have absolutely nothing in this deal.
At any rate, the other day someone was asking about a hand held scanner. There is a deal today on the following site that may be worth considering.
www.1saleaday.com
It's in the "computer accessory collection" section.
It wants me to sign up. Ain't happenin'.
Thanks Dave. I've used this site in the past for some pretty great deals.
Sorry about that - yes, you do have to "sign up" to see the "flash deals". I like these folks and occasionally get a good deal from them. Never had a problem so I think you'll be safe to sign up - even if you don't use them now or in the future. I do understand your reluctance - I frequently feel the same about other sites.
That is why you have a random yahoo e-mail address, so you can sign up for things like that.
I'm the one that was asking about the scanners. I ended up doing what was suggested, and burning 1/2 a day researching, the VuPoint ones seem to be highly regarded. They have a nice comparison on their website. I had pretty much decided on the ST441, its B/W & color, and does JPEG & PDF. Most of the other option wer the same or better as teh others.
I was going to ebay one for around $60, I just got teh one that you posted up for the $35. It is factory refurbished like most things on that site, but for teh amount I am going to use it, should be fine.
Thanks for the post!
(For those that don't want to sign up, they have the VuPoint ST415, and the ST441, both about the same $35, both factory refurbished.)
