Richard. Thanks for this info.
So what would you recommend specifically for book
scanning? Wait for the specific Fopyto accessory for that to come out?

There are two stands that I would recommend over
the Giraffe Reader and Standscan at this point.
Scanjig, $40.00 plus shipping, which is made out
of hard plastic and is quite sturdy, but may be
a little bulky for those who want to take it on
the go. It measures about 9 by 13, by 1.5 inches when closed up.
Then, in a week or so, the latest version of the
Fopydo stand will be available through Amazon.
The one currently on there is an old version,
but the creator has come up with a much improved
model. It will sell for $12.00 plus shipping.
It is made from the same kind of corrugated
plastic as the Giraffe Reader, but far more
versatile because it will work with any size
phone and even small tablets. Once it is out, he
will have a video and written instructions to
help a blind person assemble it themselves. It
is in one piece, so assembly isn't really
accurate, more how to unfold it and snap the tab
in place that creates the platform for your phone.
It will allow raising the height to be able to
scan longer documents or both pages of a book.
He is also working on an accessory to help with scanning books.
I will post the direct link to Amazon when it is
available. I have both the Scanjig and Fopydo
stands in my office and think they are both
excellent choices, depending on what your scanning needs are.
HTH,
Richard

I know about the standscan and giraffe
stands. I’d appreciate posts from those of
you who have tried these stands or others and
your conclusions about how they work. I would
also appreciate pointers to any articles/info about stands. Thanks.
