Since I'll write my diploma thesis on OCR I'm very interested in
all OCR related products, like Scanners, Pagereaders and Software.

Please *everybody* send any information on new products to me:

If I get enough responses, I'll post a summary.  You can also send me
your address and I'll distribute an overview of the OCR-products on the
market (which will be part of my OCR-thesis).
