Jeff Swain, Sr. Product Manager, Newell Rubbermaid, joins Inside Mac to share the details about the long awaited launch of CardScan for Mac. The CardScan products have been a leader in business card scanning for many years and until now have never been available natively on the Mac OS platform. Jeff explains that part of the delay porting this system to the Mac was that they wanted to create a truly native Leopard application that would take full advantage of all the features that Mac users know and love. The CardScan for Mac offers the same functionality and features currently available in their Windows version, designed in a completely Mac interface including a coverflow view of scanned business cards and drag and drop contact creation functionality from any application. Our hands-on testing proved it was definately worth the wait and is by far the most accurate business card scanner on the market.
