First off, what happens if two pages are stuck together? you have to go to some point you don't know in a cropping program= efficiency lost. And can it calculate the differences between hard cover, soft cover, large volumes ect.? it makes a tremendous difference. Plus cost wise, automatic systems are incredibly expensive, while two DSLRs connected to a generic machine in a scanning enclosure is comparably much cheaper. Some of the systems where the spines are cut work, but nowadays you need physical copies for archiving purposes anyways. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[jeremymodell]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 14th 2009 2:39AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Book scanning gets a 1,000 fps turbo mode]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/13/book-scanning-gets-a-1-000-fps-turbo-mode/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/13/book-scanning-gets-a-1-000-fps-turbo-mode/</guid><description><![CDATA[You simply OCR the pagenumbers and if one is missed get a guy to do that page manually, that would still beat the manual effort used currently to do page after page slowly with a factor of tens of thousand.<br><br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Wwhat]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 14th 2009 6:05PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Book scanning gets a 1,000 fps turbo mode]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/13/book-scanning-gets-a-1-000-fps-turbo-mode/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/13/book-scanning-gets-a-1-000-fps-turbo-mode/</guid><description><![CDATA[I am still looking for a place to buy the mini Johnny 5's from the second movie, Ebay has let me down!!! <br><br>This new scanner will be awesome when it can say "Los Locos kick your butt, Los Locos kick your face, Los Locos kick your.........]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Deaconclgi]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 13th 2009 11:21PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Book scanning gets a 1,000 fps turbo mode]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/13/book-scanning-gets-a-1-000-fps-turbo-mode/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/13/book-scanning-gets-a-1-000-fps-turbo-mode/</guid><description><![CDATA[or...you know....publishers could release all their books on ebooks for a decent price (mostly textbooks) versus selling them 10% cheaper than the hardcover book then not being able to sell it back for any money at all. <br><br>why go through the trouble of scanning when the publisher has the book digitally anyway?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[chop]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 13th 2009 11:20PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Book scanning gets a 1,000 fps turbo mode]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/13/book-scanning-gets-a-1-000-fps-turbo-mode/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/13/book-scanning-gets-a-1-000-fps-turbo-mode/</guid><description><![CDATA[Gives new meaning to speed reading.
