It uses 2 cameras and does two pages at a time, no wait... put book in, click, turn page, click, turn page, click etc... Not auto-feed but next best thing for ease of use... Major fault - IT DOESN'T EXIST - release promised for more than a year but continual postponement...

If you want auto-flip then get something else... and be prepared to pay for it, get real guys, this is a bargain offering... if it ever gets released...

I agree with theducks. It doesn't look like it has autoflip functionality.
No, it hasn't. So what?

And the advantage of this setup over the flatbed is that you don't have to break the spine...

The test of legality has always been whether or not a device has significant non-copyright-infringing uses. That's been the case since video recorders first appeared on the scene; courts ruled that although they could be used to infringe copyright (by copying tapes) they could also be used for entirely legal purposes, such as time-shifting TV programmes, and hence were OK to sell.

The question is whether or not this device has a significant non-infringing purpose.
It does.

Law firms gather huge amounts of extracted information in preparing for trial.

Also in the US, copying a book you own would be fair use.

I hope it's cheap, because it looks like I could build something just like it out of scrap plywood, PVC, and an old digital camera. Add a few dollars if the camera can't focus near enough (mine can) and you need close-up aux lenses (I have a set anyway).

There seems to be a whole web site devoted to building DIY book scanners.

Yes, too difficult for me too. If I could find someone to build one I'd give them the money I had budgeted for the Ion. =/
