ScanMan PowerPage ($799) is a compact, motorized, boardless scanner. You can use it as a sheet-fed, full-page scanner or detach the motorized scanning head from its base and use it as a hand-held scanner. From Logitech (Fremont, CA), the 256-gray-scale scanner is TWAIN- and OLE 1.0-compliant and has a 25- to 400-dpi resolution. Thresholding and dithering features automatically adjust text and image contrast to produce high-quality copies and faxes. Communication between the computer and the scanner is software controlled.
