Think of our software like Dolby(tm) for stereo equipment. You can't buy
Dolby(tm) for your stereo, you have to buy a stereo with Dolby(tm). 

The software is custom designed for each scanner model and we have worked
with scanner manufacturers to deliver the software to end users. I encourage
you to contact your scanner manufacter. They may be able to provide our
products to you.

So when will you guys make your super software available to the end users? I
have a Minolta Elite with DIce... Love it, but would also like to have the
other
goodies...
