Greetings,
I received the ScanJig Pro Plus today. That is the newest model of the ScanJig scanning stand to be used with the iPhone or iPad for scanning documents. The Pro Plus version adds a bracket that can be used to stabilize the stand so you could scan books with it, using an iPhone. For those who are not familiar with the ScanJig, I'm sorry, I'm not going to go into lots of details. But, it is made out of hard, molded, plastic and is a bit larger when closed than the Fopydo or StandScan. The ScanJig folds into itself and forms a box approximately 1.5 inches deep, 9 inches wide and 13 inches long. When opened and set up, it holds the phone almost in a vertical position pointed at the document, which is also in an almost vertical position. The change in the Pro Plus version is that you tilt it up at 90 degrees, so the document holder is flat on the table and the shelf that holds the phone is parallel to the table. So it is like you tipped it up on its back. Then, there is a bracket that fits in two rectangular holes in the bottom of the ScanJig that braces it so it can sit steady. Then, you can open a book and lay it landscaped on the table on the document holder. It sells for about $50.00 at www.scanjig.com <http://www.scanjig.com> For some people, this might be a better fit than the Fopydo Scanning Stand for the Blind with the Book Reading Attachment. I can't say which is better as it is really down to personal preference. The Fopydo set up would sit on a lap more easily than the ScanJig setup would, as one example. Anyway, I hope that was helpful. Richard -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
