Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - The Pen is Drunk
I purchased the pen to scan numbers only.That should be simple enough. NOT! The accuracy rate for the pen was about 20%. I could have made better hand written notes drunk. In fact, if the pen acts like a drunk. Not only cannot not copy numbers, just simple numbers, the software staggers like a bar fly constantly missing the stool, but foolish enough not to know it.So my pen, after a generous probationary period and attempts to rehabilitate is being returned to send never to come back to this ...

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - make sure jack is plugged in ALL THE WAY
Okay, I know it sounds dumb and obvious, but if you can't get the pen to communicate with your PC, make sure to push the cable jack is pushed in completely.I have a film background and am used to using a variety of cables and electronic devices, so when I read the advice in the help section of the desktop program about checking the jack and the batteries I thought yeah, yeah I'm not an idiot. So, I uninstalled and reinstalled the driver and desktop program twice from the disk and once from the ... Read More

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Unusable and Worthless
Even after the supposed training of the pen, out of 20 scans it did not completely recognize the text once.It is very position sensitive and the technology needs to be significantly improved.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Review of WizCom WSP1000P Line Scaner
I am using the to take notes for my various on-line and research projects.While the results are about 90% correct, I can usually fill in the blanks, and it is much much better than hand written notes.I would recommend this product to any student or researcher that does not need to take entire pages of verbatim notes.For what I am using it for it is well worth the money.

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Please, people, take these negative reviews seriously
This product is almost impossible to configure with your PC unless you have a PhD in computer science. NOTHING works out of the box...I've tried to follow some of the suggestions that other reviewers have posted with no result.There is little if any documentation that comes with the pen and I'm not sure that I'm getting great reliability with the scanning device itself presuming if I can ever figure out how to upload the scanned information into Word.

I rarely resort to using all caps ... Read More
