[Reader-users] the phone and knfb reader

[Curtis Delzer]

Another thing, with the camera being part of the phone, wouldn't making 
skewing errors and accuracy be much better using the KNFB mobile reader 
compared to the classic? More parts separately usually means more batteries, 
cables, interfacing problems, broken cables, ... etc.? While scanning, if 
only one page at a time, if interrupted by a phone call, big deal, just 
rescan the page when done, and there is probably provision made for 
returning to that scan when a call is ended.

I think James said during his demo that you can answer a phone call
while scanning. also the software was rewritten from the ground up to
more than make up for the slower processor. also, Fujitsu has stopped
making pocket pcs and no other brand includes usb host. The camera in
the n82 has a much better lens than the sd20 used in the classic.
Maybe the n82 only has a 311mhz processor but it actually has 2
processors unlike the fujitsu 560n
