Just wanted to let everyone know that that if you don't have a laptop and scanner for you trips, that what I did a couple of years ago I purchased a small Xerox copier for $120 and take it with me alot. I have used it when I go talk to people that may have papers to copy. I also purchased a small suitcase to care it in. It is the same size as my scanner and it is about 20inches by 15 by 4 inches. Its great. Marilyn Rice maize22@aol.com
