"3's X-Series phones are a glimpse today of the future for all of us. Each X-Series phone has a powerful camera and a flat-rate data plan, so people can freely capture and share the moments that are important to them. Now with scanR, 3's X-Series phones serve as mobile document hubs, which allow users to capture and share their paper documents," said Rudy Ruano, CEO of scanR.

scanR is the easiest way to convert paper into digital information, so people can store, share and search it. With scanR, people can capture the information from handwritten notes, printed documents, business cards and more, with their camera phones. To use scanR, just snap a photo and send it to scanR. The photo is converted into a clear document, with the keywords and contact information extracted from the text, and returned as a searchable PDF or vCard file. scanR will even synchronize your information with popular applications such as Facebook, Salesforce and Plaxo.

Director and General Manager of 3's Handset and Application team Frank Meehan says, "The 3 Group is proud to offer a mobile application which allows customers to turn paperwork into useful digital information in a few simple steps.
