The QuickLink Pen from WizCom Technologies is possibly the most important peripheral to emerge during
early 2000 for all PalmOS devices. It allows on-the-spot OCR for
professionals, students, and anyone who needs to grab text on the go. Soon
available will be the ability to beam captured text directly to any PalmOS
device that is IR-capable. Stay tuned for a full review of PalmOS connectivity as well as
Windows PC connectivity and features!
Up to 1000 pages (2 megs of RAM) of scanned text can be stored in the pen and transferred to PC, laptop,
PDA or cellular phone. The OCR engine enables the unit to store large quantities
of information by converting the image to text.
The QuickLink Pen comes equipped with the following applications:
Notes and

word-processing application.
