The Fujitsu ScanSnap and the Amazon Kindle are two devices that lots and lots of people love. What happens when they are used together? Lots and lots of happiness!
Over at the ScanSnap Community site, Megan Fowler did a post outlining how she used her ScanSnap S1500 to scan documents in to her Kindle DX prior to a long flight.
Recently, I went on a family vacation that involved a plane ride to our destination. During our five hour plane ride in coach, I did not want to deplete my laptop battery trying to read various articles and business documents that I didn’t get around to reviewing prior to leaving. My laptop battery was better served as movie entertainment for my three young boys during the flight. Traveling light is a must when we travel, therefore carrying around a ½ ream of paper of reading materials is not an option. My solution was to load my Kindle DX full of scans of various articles I had clipped from magazines, white papers my boss had handed me to read, details of various sightseeing places I wanted to visit and our favorite family recipes to make during our vacation.
For your Kindle users out there, of which I am unfortunately not one, have you scanned PDFs in to your Kindle? How about the Kindle 1 or Kindle 2?
