Is there software that uses the camera on the 6700 to take a picture of a business card and convert it to contact info?

Geez, give some people a nice device with a keyboard so they dont have to press one button multiple times to get the character they want and they still dont wanna type the info it......LAZY.....LOL.

J/K.....there is an app as this was requested some time back but I cannot remember what it was. Just know that there is one out there.

Don't you love America?

Hopefully someone out there knows the name. I've searched and can't find anything that's available other than OEM.

One Note 2007 can do this, take a picture using your phone and One Note Mobile, then sync the notes over to the PC. The PC does the heavy lifting and OCR work on the image. It's not the most convenient method in the world, but it's workable.
