I thought the IPal was a full computer in of itself. I thought it was one of
those like the GW Small Talk or OQO with a camera built in. I might be thinking
of a different one, but if this was the same one, isn't the computer irrelevant
besides transferring saved files?

Can you run the IPal independently of the Mac and if you want to put anything
on
the mac afterwards what do you do?

Mark, it's too bad you hadn't looked into this before you bought the pearl.
I teach both eyepal and pearl, and while I like the look of the pearl better,
the eyepal does at least as good a job with no duel booting required.
It's just awfully tough to justify the price tag of the eyepal after the
outlay on the pearl.

Hello Scott,
The Pearl with OpenBook is the most amazing thing I have ever seen (no pun
intended).
I will use BootCamp on my Mac, then.
Thank you,
Mark

Hi Mark,
The Pearl will only work with OpenBOok 9.0 and will only work under
windows.
The two options that work with the Mac are the hoverCam with DocuScan Plus
from Serotek and the EyePal.
Personally I like the Pearl and OpenBOok as the accuracy is fantastic from
everything I've scanned.
Cheers.
Scott

Subject: A Question Regarding OCR
Hello Everyone,
In addition to being the proud owner of a Focus 40 Blue, I also obtained
Freedom Scientific's Pearl camera along with OpenBook 9.0.
To put it simply, I am stunned with the OCR performance in both OpenBook
and
the accuracy of the camera along with the dazzling speed of the image
acquisition experience.
I think what blows my mind the most is the motion detection that allows
one
to turn pages and when the new page is in view of the camera, it
automatically takes a photo and begins the OCR process.
I swear it feels as though I have a sighted person reading for me.
I could go on and on but ...
I realize that the pearl has been out for quite some time and am wondering
if anyone knows if it will work with anything on the Mac.
I know one thing for sure, with the Pearl in my toolbox, I have put my
scanner away for good.
Mark
