Editorial Review:
With the Wizcom SuperPen translator, you can now translate documents quickly, easily, and accurately. With over 30 downloadable language dictionaries available on the Wizcom web site, you can increase comprehension, enhance communication, and store documents for later use.
Weighing just 3 ounces, the SuperPen Translator is easy to carry and fits easily into a purse or bag for convenient traveling. The SuperPen is bidirectional with English, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Spanish, Finnish, and Swedish, while all other languages are unidirectional to English only. For those learning English, the SuperPen features integrated text-to-speech technology, which provides a word-by-word pronunciation of the scanned English text.
Supported font sizes range from 6 to 22 points and include bold, italic, underlined, and inverted. The pen has a 97% OCR accuracy rate. You can also manually input text, making the SuperPen ideal for translating signposts and other unscannable information.
Store your scans (up to 1,000 pages worth) and transfer them to your computer or PDA at your leisure. The SuperPen can transmit data via IRDA (to a PDA), 9-pin serial port, or optional USB. The included AAA batteries have a battery life of about a month, while the internal flash memory card ensures that you don't lose any stored data in case your batteries should fail. The SuperPen translator also comes backed with a one-year warranty on both parts and labor.

Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating:  out of 5 stars - Please, do not buy this translation pen!
This software of the pen is terrible! I grew up with computers and software, but this is just terrible. The pen seems not to have the menues, that the software asks for. I tried hours, even another PC, but I was not able to install the dictinoaries to the pen, because the software could not connect to the pen. I am very angry now, and I had to return the pen. I am now looking for a pen from another brand.
I had read the other comments before, about the bad software, but I thougt, I can handle ... Read More



Rating:  out of 5 stars - Excellent post sale service
I received an excellent service from Amazon, but i got not service at all from tech support.



Rating:  out of 5 stars - not OS X compatible
I was given the superpen as a gift to help with my grad school research, but I doesn't work on my Mac. When I contacted customer service about what software I could use or if it will run on a windows parallel system, they just said "tough luck."



Rating:  out of 5 stars - Good functional scanning pen
I have used this scanning pen for only a few items, but it seems to work as advertised. The included documentation indicated that the pen would work 'out of the box,' but I had to download a dictionary to the pen in order to make it work.
This is the second pen that I received. The first one seemed to be very erratic. The batteries didn't appear to work, so I used new ones that I had on hand. Then, sometimes a menu item would be available on the pen and the next time it was not there. As instructed ... Read More
