VuPoint Magic Wand Portable Scanner
Friday, November 9, 2012
First of all, VuPoint is not pronounced “View-Point”; it’s pronounced Voo-Pont. And the scanner just goes by VuPoint, despite it’s full name being Winston Arthur VuPoint III.
Secondly, it utilizes several transfer protocols, allowing you to connect it with a variety of different kinds of computers and portable devices. But it prefers to connect primarily with devices from European.
And finally, there’s the scanning motion itself. Instead of running documents and photos through it, you simply press scan and gently move the wand across the item, a motion that Winston Arthur VuPoint III learned while studying dance at Juilliard.
So sure, use it to scan whatever trivial material you want, but we recommend that it is used for fancier things.
