Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of C Pen 800C Handheld ScannerCustomer Review: NO SUPPORT Summary: 1 StarsLet's be honest.
This product ain't cheap. It's not something you can just throw away if it decides to stop working.
I bought mine at cpenusa.com. Delivery was great, only took them a couple of days. However, my c-pen cable was damaged. The connector to the c-pen was, for some reason, cut in half. Without it, you can't recharge or connect the c-pen to the pc.
I called their main office all the way in Sweden during the office hours. NO RESPONSE. I sent three e-mails to cpenusa. NO RESPONSE.
I don't care if the product itself is great(I'll never know now, will I..). If you're unable to receive support when you need 'em, you're screwed.
If you're just interested in electronic equipments, just want to try things out and don't really care if you're on your own, go ahead and try it. Let me know how this thing really is. Otherwise, buy a product that you can trust on with respect to after-sales support.
Description of C Pen 800C Handheld ScannerC-Pen is a mobile information collector that reads, remembers, processes and transfers printed text to your Windows-equipped PC and PDA products. C-Pen is in essence an electronic highlighter that saves the text you are marking. Carry it with you wherever you go! Make it a habit to take your portable text collector with you, and you are always ready to read and save text from books, papers, brochures or business cards. You can easily record price-lists, timetables, wine tips or witty quotes. You don't have to tear out pages any more. With the portable dictionary you can translate and look up words immediately without carrying around a printed dictionary! Your saved text files can later be transferred to your PC. It is also possible to use C-Pen to read text directly into a Windows application in your PC. Students, researchers, and professionals who value the convenience and plentiful features of the C Pen will appreciate the expanded memory, rechargeable battery, and crisp display in the 800C. This study and business tool, which is nearly as small and light as a standard highlighter, speeds your efforts to gather research information. Use it to capture text from any printed source; it can store up to 3,000 pages of printed text and PC files. Merriam Webster's Collegiate Dictionary, with 215,000 definitions and translations, is integrated as a standard feature, and you can download up to 11 different language dictionaries from the manufacturer. The 800C is also equipped to receive text messages, and the display can show six crisp lines of text at a time. The C Pen 800 is Windows compatible and interacts with PDAs made by Palm, Visor or Sony. You can transfer information via infrared port or serial cable, and the C Pen is designed for left- or right-handed users. A serial cable is included, as is a one-year warranty.
