Anyone know what the resolution of the Thunderscan for the Imagewriter
is?  (The article in A+ doesn't say.)  Is it good enough to capture
printed text (say, normal magazine/newspaper size fonts) so that one
might think of attempting character recognition on it?  (Its so new it's
probably futile to ask, but does anyone know if anyone has written the
software to digitize text, recognize the characters, and convert it to
ASCII?)
