Vupoint Solutions Magic Wand 2 Portable Scanner (PDS-ST441R-VP) - RED

Item looks great. It is a xmas gift so wont know until then

working as well as I need it too - glad I have it

Neat and convenient tool for certain scan jobs. Very solid build and sharp color. Love the wifi aspect of this particular model, which makes it easy to view your scans on your smartphone to check your work. This is much superior to the model with the 1 color screen. Docked one star because it eats batteries.

I purchased mine as a bundle for genealogy documentation etc. Have scanned pictures, documents, etc and Im going to say its the BEST purchase Ive made thus far in 2012! Love it!! Its also easy to use, to pack along, instructions are easy to follow. One issue is having to reset jpg or pdf if you let it shut off. It doesnt hold what you last used, but then again, maybe you dont want it too! I just need to get in the habit of checking the window instead of being so excited in finding something to scan. LOL In fact, two other family members have purchased from my recommendation. Many people that are doing genealogy research have these. If you have a family member that likes to scan (remember you can take these anywhere!) it would make a terrific Christmas present for them! And I did buy it thru Amazon and had it within a few days!! Also, excellent to scan old photos to put onto CDs, etc. Very easy.

it is hard to get it right. you need to swipe the scanner in a strictly straight line with even pace. It is just hard to do it right in one time and you need to repeat multiple times, maybe several dozen times... i have to return it sorry!

Nice scanner and very easy to use.

I can scan ridiculous quantities of papers in a matter of minutes. Ive shredded stacks and stacks of documents since I can easily store them in PDF now. Its going to be a big task when it actually comes time to organize them on the computer, but thats much better than misplacing them all over the apartment. The only reason I dont give it 5 stars is because during my marathon scanning sessions it eats batteries with a hunger. Considering the overall convenience and speed, this is a small price to pay. Id say if you only scan occasionally, thisll be 5 stars for you. If you scan voraciously, itll be 4 stars. Either way, this is a quality product that is improving my overall organization and living situation a surprising amount.

Recieved it as a christmas present. It has worked very well. With color as well as grays. Wish it was a little faster.

Fantastic quality images, easy to use, and very versatile over almost any surface. I love that I can save as a JPEG or as a PDF. No need to worry about going to fast or slow, the little roller compensates. Much better product than I expected -- no regrets. I showed this to other people in the office and the immediately ordered 2! The only improvement suggestion is a rechargeable battery.

seems to work as advertised
