I posted a message in this conference earlier on requesting
information on scanners, particularly 256 grayscale handheld
scanners.  I'm still interested in hearing from people with
hands-on experience, particularly with OCR (what software
are you using?).  I will post information in this conference
as I receive it.  

One useful reference I have just discovered is the January 1993 
issue of Computer Shopper.  It has a section devoted to explaining
the technical backgroud to scanners of all types, and a chart
listing many different scanners with cursory data on each.  If
you're in the market, like I am, you should give this article a 
look!

Until later....
