[This is from the Blink Talk Conference]

Well, hello gang.  Haven't been around much lately but I see some new names 
on blinktalk so that's good to see.  Been busy with lots of things but one 
is learning to use my new Arkenstone.  I purchased the model S and the Jet 
Scan and although some things are a little more time consuming with the 
slower scanner, I am amazed at its capability.  The very first thing I 
scanned didn't work.  Strange!  Then I read some junk mail, envelopes, 
newsletters, and a business card.  Worked fine!  My first real day playing 
with it I read, for the first time, one of my ham radio manuals with no 
problems.  Then my wife asked how long she would have to wait to get her new 
microwave manual on disk.  I sat down and in about 90 minutes scanned a 31 
page manual.  It came out nearly perfect.  All this and I thus far haven't 
read one Arkenstone doc file.  Wonder what it'll do when I learn how to use 
it?

Phil.
