Doxie's new DoxieGo + Wi-Fi: Demo video at Macworld iWorld 2012

Yesterday while I was on the show floor at Macworld | iWorld 2012, I came upon a 7-foot-tall scanner walking around. After I figured out that my cold medicine wasn't making me hallucinate, I knew that I was in the right place -- the Doxie booth. There I was able to interview Paul Scandariato of Doxie about their new DoxieGo + Wi-Fi mobile scanner and grab some video.

The new scanner communicates with your Mac or iOS device over Wi-Fi, and allowing you to scan straight to the cloud if you wish. Paul noted that many users scan their documents straight to Dropbox, then open them for viewing or annotation on the iPad.

The DoxieGo + Wi-Fi is priced at US$249, while the DoxieGo previously reviewed by TUAW remains at $199. For Macworld show-goers, you can the Doxie scanners for $50 off of list price through Saturday.

Here's the DoxieGo + Wi-Fi in action:

What is all this fuss about this so called new product?
It is exactly the same as the old product with an Eye-Fi wireless card.
Buying the old one and the card separately would be exactly the same.

Am I missing something perhaps?

Doxie Go + Wi-Fi is a bundle: Doxie Go, plus an Eye-Fi wireless SD card. We've designed Doxie to work with Eye-Fi cards, so if you wish, you can scan wirelessly. The benefit is that you can wirelessly send to iPhone, iPad, or direct to cloud apps.

Going "wireless" is, of course, optional. With Doxie Go for $199, you can scan anywhere – no computer required – then sync your scans to Mac or PC via USB.
