VuPoint PDSC-IW441-VP Solutions Carrying Case for Magic Wand Portable Scanner

I would highly recommend this item if you own the Magic Wand, it is a tight fit for the wand I own but does the job it was intended for.

Thought it was a bit pricy till I saw it...but this case is worth every penny! It's "luggage" quality, will protect the scanner from almost anything short of being run over by a car. A lot of thought has obviously gone into the design, because the lid has storage for the USD cord, additional flash cards/cases, and even two extra AA batteries and zips completely to keep dust out, making it perfect for storage AND travel, yet it's still not too large to fit into a tote or laptop case. Btw, also love the scanner!

This case is attractive and sturdy looking/feeling. However when I first attempted to put my new VuPoint PDS-ST470PU-VP into the case it would not go in and I was hesitant to force it. I actually filled out the paperwork to return it, then double-checked if there was another one available for my particular model. Turns out it was the same, so I tried one more time to 'make' it fit. I actually had to force it in (at first) and the opening of the case actually stretched a little to accommodate. Both the case and the zipper are a bit stiff right out of the box, but as I zipped/unzipped it loosened up. I would have given 4.5 stars (if available) with the 1/2 taken off for the 'forced fit', but it doesn't deserve 4 stars so 5 it is! :-DPros:Compact with pockets for the power cord and SD cardSturdy and rubbery, feels like it would protect the scanner if accidentally dropped (have not tested that!)Cons:Must force the scanner into the case, if you just rest it on the case it looks like it should be about 1/4 inch longer

It met my expectation. I like it. It cost its money. I recommend it to everyone who need a good case.

Amazing portable scanner for scanning items that can't be moved to a traditional scanner. Very easy to connect the scanner to a computer and access your scans. Note this means you can't see the quality of you scan immediately. If your scanning a lot of pages I would highly suggest scanning a few pages, and then check to see if your technique is giving you the desired quality you want. The most important thing when scanning is just to make you scan at a constant slow-medium speed, keeping the scanner flat on your surface of interest.Only issue I ran into was trying to scan a book, upon which I would usually see blurring in the middle of the book. Not impossible to read, just the quality wasn't as high as the outside region of the page. Other users have suggested placing a transparent sheet over your book, and scan over the transparent sheet. This removes the issues involved with blurs in the middle of a book, and allows you to scan both pages at once, cutting down on the number of required scans.
