I don't think they do biz cards scan though. But how useful is this, really? Anyways, good to see that there are some smart guys all over who put their brains to good use... http://www.qipit.com: same stuff, easier to use: no software to install on the phone (just email the photo of your doc to copy@qipit.com or color@qipit.com).

Otherhand OCR would have made it a wonderful application.

To be able to use the Scanr application, which will allow you to upload photos from the phone itself, you need to have a Java-capable model. You can check http://www.checkmycameraphone.com/ which phones work well with the service. Hi Laurie,

He has business cards littered about everywhere. Problem is, he is technologically challenged. So, I am going to have to figure this out for him. Does Scanr work on any phone with a digital camera? Can you recommend a phone? I have heard from a cell phone salesman that the Samsung A800 does this but it seems too outdated to buy that now. It came out in 2003 I think. Any help would be greatly appreciated. My husband needs this. He has business cards littered about everywhere. Problem is, he is technologically challenged.

After all, they already process scanned data by turning business card scans into vCard format. Congrats on being a finalist in the Philippine Blog Awards tech category, you deserve to win :-) Hi sir,
