Make PDFs on Your PDA or Cell Phone

While sleuthing on the internet recently, I found a free cell phone service that was created to help you and your documents organized. Qipit allows you to copy documents and handwritten notes with your camera phone or digital camera to store, fax, email, or publish online.

The service turns notes into PDFs, after which they can be emailed. Moreover, by storing all of your paper documents and notes as digital documents in one place, Qipit makes for easy archiving and sharing. It aims to be a "portable scanner, mobile copier, and a mobile fax machine, all in one." The ability to create clean copies for free is a great tool for those who need it.

To use the service, take a picture of your notes or document with your camera phone or digital camera, send it to Qipit as a multimedia message (MMS) from your camera phone, email, or your Qipit account. Qipit turns your photo into a PDF or JPEG, which you can store or send to an email or fax number from your cell phone as a multimedia message (MMS) or mobile email. It's that easy.

If there is any reader out there who already uses this service, please let us all know in the notes section what you thought. I will report back on how it works for me.
