Great App Idea (Turn Camera Into Scanner)

Have you ever really needed a copy of a document or diagram? Usually the easiest way to do it is to take a quick picture of it with your phone. However, this usually results in poor quality pictures, misaligned text, improper framing etc.
What I propose is an application that corrects these problems like so:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
There are two open source tools that do it (http://unpaper.berlios.de/ and http://scantailor.sourceforge.net/ ). I was wondering if these could be ported to Android?

Did you try any of the other "scan" utilities on the market already available? Did you contact the dev's of those applications and see if they are working on a port or would be interested.

I can't find any scan utilities on Market... Do you have any names?

try Scan2PDF

Eplixo mobile.....voip video conference

FINALLY WE CAN HAVE VIDEO CONFERENCE IN THE US.....WE CAN FINALLY USE THOSE USELESS FRONT CAMERAS OF OUR HTCS(FOR THOSE THAT DONT HAVE FRONT CAMERAS ....like my fuze ......IT ALSO WORKS WITH THE BACK CAMERA). EPLIXO PROVIDES VIDEO CONFERENCE OVER VOIP....IF YOUR CARRIER ALLOWS IT....I THINK YOU SHOULD TRY THIS APP
AS STATED IN THIS POST (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=632157&page=1) EPLIXO IS ON FIRST STAGE OF DEVELOPMENT AND WILL ONLY WORK WITH OTHER WM.....BUT THE IMPLEMENTATION FOR ANDROID.... AND IPHONE ARE AROUND THE CORNER.....AND EVEN SAY THAT MAYBE WILL BE ABLE TO USE WITH SKYPE......THAT IS SOMETHING I WILL LIKE TO SEE

I have a real similar item I used to use on my iPhone, the Streak is too heavy and it gets wobbly. The way the handle looks bent on the photo of this one makes it look like it might have similar issues.

Need something like a rear mirror hanger with a slide-in that contain the streak on both sides and the bottom

Joby Mount / Grip [PICS]

So i was planning to get this and have it grip my parking break or the shifter. What do you guys think?

edit: the actual grip is only 72mm wide so it's a no go for the note 2. I am going to visit homedepot after work to see what I can conjure up hehe.

Nice, thanks for sharing.
Only issue is where to mount it to in car, can't block the view of windshields and i don't see where you could mount it to sit where climate control is.

I actually have this tripod for my camera. It's really cool. You can adjust it into any position you can think of. If there were a way to get it to hold my Note2, I'd use it much more than I do now.

[Q] touch layer of the screen

Hi guys,
can you explain why is the "conductive layer" clearly visible on the Z1 screen ( as relly dense lines at different angles) under some types of light (I've noticed it while sitting in the restaurant under littlehalogen lights)? I've switched from SGS II and there I can't see any lines or dots ( dots were visible in ZTE Blade that I owned before ).
Here's a graphical aid for your senses, it's form iPhone, but I thinks it's more or less the same.

The Z1 comes with a factory "screen protector" and that's probably what you're seeing and not the conductive layer
