PROS
Relatively fast scanning. Accurate OCR. Light and small. Easy to use.
CONS

BOTTOM LINE
The Epson DS-70 is a fast and accurate no-frills single-sheet-feed portable document scanner. It’s easily portable and doesn’t cost too much.
The Epson DS-70 Portable Document Scanner ($109) is a bare-bones scanner for simple, on-the-go scan jobs. It doesn’t have wireless or mobile support, so you’ll have to hook it up to a PC to use it, but it’s small and light enough to toss in a bag with your laptop and head to a meeting. You can take a step up to the Editors’ Choice DS-80W, but you’re going to have to shell out an extra $60 for that more advanced travel-friendly features.
