Hi Andy,
I was wondering if there will be a trial for the KNFB app before buying? Let's
see how much resistence this will generate on the list. With all my OCR apps on
the phone, I will need to assess if the KNFB app will outdo the set up I use
with my StandScan Pro. Thanks for informing the
the price. from Mich.

If it was $30 I might consider it if other demos show equal results in speed
and accuracy, but $99? They must be on some pretty amazing drugs to think
people will pay that much for something that is only faster by a few seconds
than apps like TextGrabber or Prizmo.
Just my opinion.

for that price it better do tha laundry, wash the dishes and clean the house.

Other platform OCR applications cost over $200. This is not priced too high if
it competes with the other OCR applications. I am curious on what it can really
