2 out of 5 stars Dissappointed.......2007-12-30

I was very excited about this product but I basically have to correct the bad reads from the scanner. I spend just as much time as if I was putting each name in a database without the use of this scanner. Great idea but poor performance.

5 out of 5 stars CardScan is sliced bread.......2007-12-25

A must have for any biz dev / sales folks. Being an IT guy I am amazed at how well the CardScan reads and sorts out the various fields. Not a perfect process so you must verify what cardscan reads, but 95%+ accurate.

Highly recommended.

4 out of 5 stars Saves time but is far from perfect.......2007-11-17

This product definitely saves time, but it's NOT 100% accurate. Company and people's names aren't always scanned properly, nor are they put in the correct category (company name, mobile, etc.)

Admittedly, many fonts and logos on business cards make the company name hard to decipher (even for me!) so I can't totally blame this on the scanner. Considering how many diverse types of business cards exist in this world, it does a pretty good job.

The good news is that this product seems to understand NUMBERS very well, and I generally find numbers the most challenging characters to enter since I actually need to pay close attention (and therefore take more time).

Another aspect I like about this scanner is that it's highly portable. It small in size, includes a USB cable (which powers the device), and comes with a carrying case that accommodates both the scanner and cable. Definitely a nice feature to have.

So far I'm pleased with this item. I scanned, organized and "verified" 40 business cards in about 20 minutes, which I think is decent time. Typing them into Outlook would've taken me about 2 hours, or 3 hours factoring in "distractions."

Overall, I feel this is a good business tool to have, and Amazon's low price makes it a good value overall.

5 out of 5 stars Cardscan Personal.......2007-11-17

This scanner worked right out of the box. The software installation was seamless. It has OCR scanning capabilities better than anything I have seen before!!

5 out of 5 stars Fantastic!.......2007-11-01

I wasn't sure I'd like the card reader at first. Now I can't imagine not using it. It even worked on old, coffee- stained cards.

          5 out of 5 stars Ameriphone Handset Amplifier.......2007-12-04

          This product is working well for an elderly parent with hearing aids. Even with the hearing aids in and on, it was difficult for this person to hear telephone conversations, which meant few relatives or friends could call to visit. Now, with the in line amplifier, the phone has become a useful tool again, with the added benefit of no bothersome feedback through the hearing aids. Good product that does what it advertises.

          1 out of 5 stars Warning.......2007-06-10

          Warning - This amplifier cannot be used to supplement a hearing aid. Feedback is intolerable. And the product cannot be returned!

          5 out of 5 stars Fantastic product!.......2007-01-05

          Bought this for my boss who uses 2 hearing aids. He absolutely loves it and it does not interfere with his hearing aids. The volume control is excellent and you don't need to use it on the highest setting it is so powerful. You can also adjust it to accomodate the pitch of different voices. Would highly recommend this product for those who cannot hear well.

          1 out of 5 stars BEWARE.......2006-12-13

          Beware when you buy this item. It may work fine IF you plan to use it with a phone that DOES NOT have the keypad in the handset! The prod. spec states that it is compatible with most phones, and portable. Upon receiving the item and reading the fine print in the package, I found it not compatible with cordless phones. Prod specs DO NOT tell you that! Prod. specs are misleading. I will not buy anything from this seller again, due to their misleading info.

          5 out of 5 stars Works Great - Very Loud.......2006-04-26

          I recently purchased this little unit and it works very well. You are able to control both the volume and the tone so that you can remove any "hiss" from the higher frequencies. It is very loud when cranked up. It has a boost function which is even louder - but I haven't even needed to try it. The battery is voice activated to save energy. Runs on an ordinary 9v battery. The only thing I would have liked better is if it was the color black instead of white.
