In the January 1989 Byte, a product called `TrueScan'
manufactured by Calera Recognition Systems is given
an award for `excellence.'  Does anyone have any
experience with this product? Is it as good as Byte says?
I lost a lot of faith in the judgment of the Byte
reviewers when they hammered the Telebit TB+, which I
think is one of the best computer products I have ever
used.
      I would be interested in anyone's opinion,
pro or con about TrueScan. Is it suitable for
inputting data from the financial pages of a newspaper
into ascii form? How about lab reports from hospitals?
Or X-ray reports? Is it worth $3500?
