I hate scanners. Hate ‘em. They’re slow, noisy, and they take up too much space. Here’s a departure from the traditional scanner that aims to truly offer no-bullshit document archival. It’s simply a tower for your iPhone (could probably use any phone, though) that uses the camera to take snapshots of the documents underneath. Best of all, you’ll likely have all your important documents with you at all times. Worst of all, if you lose habitually lose phones, this probably isn’t a good idea.

Also, it could be argued that the iPhone document scanner takes up almost as much space as a regular scanner but, hey, it costs next-to-nothing and doesn’t require power or a computer and all your documents are kept right in your pocket.
