You will need one of the companies wireless modules to attach to each light or device you want to control, so it could end up being quite expensive.

The iPhone App will be available for free from the iPhone app store in January.

It’s always interesting to see how different people have their offices set up. Some, like myself are proud of their technology, and aren’t afraid to show it off. Others prefer to keep the tech to a minimum in their work area. They prefer to keep family photos and other important items on their desk. These Photo Frame Speakers are perfect for such people.

Whether you use a desktop or laptop PC, it’s nice to have a pair of external speakers on your desk. Unfortunately it is generally difficult to disguise or hide them away. These speakers, however, also act as a 4”x6” photo frame. Mind you, those are for actual photographs, not digital photos. These are perfect for those that don’t want a lot of clutter on their desk, as it combines two objects into one. At $50 for the pair, it would be a great addition to many people’s desks.

1. Scrapbooking

Photo books are still very much alive today in the form of scrapbooking. If someone you love is into scrapbooking, then you must preserve a digital archive of their work. Even though you have a digital copy of the photographs, you don’t have a digital copy of the beautiful pages that your loved one has created. I promise you, in twenty years, those pages will be just as valuable as the raw photos they were created from. In this case, a scanner with a flatbed that can scan 12″ X 12″ sheets is essential. The Mustek Scan Express A3 1200 Pro is the most affordable scanner (priced at under $200) in the large format category. There is also the Mustek ScanExpress A3 USB Flatbed Scanner, which is a little over $200. The Epson GT-15000 Professional Scanner is considered the best, but it is priced at over $1000.

2. That Old Box of Negatives and Slides Collecting Dust In The Basement

Scanners like the HP Scanjet G4050 have attachments that can work with slides and negatives. The software can create photos from those old negatives and slides. Rather than risking loss at a photo developers, you can process your precious negatives on your own.

3. Receipts

The easiest way to keep track of your receipts is to scan them and store them on your computer. Then, if you have a warranty issue, you have documentation of every thing you’ve purchased. Instead of scrambling in a file, all you have to do is pull up the scan and print off a copy to prove your date of purchase.

4. Faxing

So much of our world has gone digital that we forget that there are still some old businesses that still use fax quite heavily. When you have to deal with those old-school businesses, it’s helpful to have the basic fax functions that today’s scanners still provide.

5. Scanner Art

Sometimes the camera just doesn’t do something justice, despite macro mode. Like pressed flowers before it, scanner art is becoming a known field of art that you just might enjoy. Here are a couple of links that talk about it:

• Creating Art work Using your Scanner

• REDONDOWRITER’S SACRED ORDINARY: New Ways of Seeing: Scanner Art

Final Notes

If you are trying to decide whether to buy a new scanner or if your current scanner is broken or unreliable, there are many inexpensive items to choose from. My favorite is the Canon CanoScan line, the newest of which is the CanoScan LiDE90 that is going for under eighty dollars. No matter what your needs, there is sure to be a scanner available that will work for you. Preserving your memories is well worth your time and money.
