My business takes down info from government sources but so far does it manually. Yes, actually using a pen and paper. How archaic eh? I have a Mac which I could possibly use with a scanner but I don't want to use a full size one as I do the work on-site. What about a hand-held? Are they any good? If so, what brand and about what price? What software? I also saw a system which uses a video and a digitizer. Could I use a single frame video system (the ones that don't capture motion) and a digitizer or am I way off base. If you have any experience with this please drop me a E-Mail message. It's time I crawled out of the Dark Ages. Thanks
