Pen-Sized Color Scanner Reviewed

moto writes "ThinkComputers has a review up of a cool pen-sized scanner, the Planon RC800 Portable Color Scanner. From the article: 'I've noticed one major constant about most technology, as it changes it gets smaller. Take scanners for instance, I have a few of them, an older one that is pretty big, you could use it for a computer case if need be, if I lined them up in order of age you would find that they get smaller as they get newer. Today for review I have the smallest scanner yet, it's from Planon, and they actually made it into the Guinness Book of World Records.'"

    This article draws some parallels from the article on "non-PC" science projects. yes, its pretty and shiny, it a portal for new, innovative things to come, but other than that, its just a raiting grabber. yawn.
