Flip-Pal Mobile Scanner Review
Portable Scanner for 2012
There are tons of scanners on the market today, but most of them work in the same manner: you connect it to a computer, put your document into the scanner, and then hit a button. The Flip-Pal Mobile Scanner is a device that does not work in the same way as traditional scanners and this review will tell you all about it.The Flip-Pal is a scanner that can be taken nearly anywhere because of its small size. It is very lightweight and is about the same size as the average netbook. This means that it should be able to fit into a small backpack, briefcase, or a large purse.
This scanner is battery-powered and does not require a computer for scanning images. Instead, an SD memory card is inserted into the scanner and when an image or document is scanned, it will be saved to the memory card. When it is time to retrieve the images, the SD card can be put into a computer and the images can be removed.
Although the Flip-Pal may not be ideal for scanning very large documents or standard sized paper, it does come with stitching software to allow scanning of any size document. Because of the design of the scanner, items can be left in their places and scanned. Its lid is removable, which means the scanner can be placed on top of the object that needs to be scanned. This is great for items you don't want to take apart to scan and isn't possible with all of the best portable scanners.
This scanner can also be used to scan items that traditional scanners may struggle with, like quilts, coins, and scrapbook pages. Additionally, it can be used to scan tattoos or parts of nature, like grass or the bark of a tree.
The Flip-Pal portable scanner will work well for people who want to document their arts and crafts as well as their memories in a digital format. However, it should probably not be used to replace a traditional scanner for everyday scanning needs, like scanning multiple pages of books or contracts. For this you may need more speed.
Flip-Pal reviews on Amazon.com have been very good. Users enjoy the ease of scanning in old photos or using this item as a handheld book scanner for library use. The versatility and simplicity of this scanner make it a great gift idea for anyone you know who loves photos, old books, or genealogy.
