Hi Rob, What exactly is it that should be integrated as a fundamental feature and what target market do you mean?
The Standscan is not an iPhone specific accessory, it is made to work with all sorts of cell phones and therefore it isn't really possible to have some sort of ledge on it which is designed to line up an iPhone. The Standscan was also not designed as a product for the blind, in fact, the people who designed it and are producing it didn't even think that this would be a useful accessory for a blind iPhone user. Lastly, keep in mind that you are not paying $30 for a cartbord box only, the Standscan Pro does have the LED Lights and the magnets and while none of these things are very expensive, there is a design process and a manufacturing process and the people who came up with the idea have to recover their initial investment in time and all that. There are many other examples of very simple products made from very inexpensive materials which cost that much or more. Corex or Coroplast as it is also known is primarily used for short-term signage and for packing material. I am not sure if it could be folded in a way to maintain the portability of the Standscan as it is now although I am no expert on this. However, I do have some signs for my business made from this and while it is light, it's not as light and readily foldable as laminated cartboard.

Corex is much like cardboard, but is extruded plastic, so the product material could and should change too; it still amazes me someone is selling a carboard box for thirty odd bucks. That material comes in many colours, including clear.... now wouldn't that be useful.

I have used rubber cement and attached two pennies along the front edge of the Stand Scan and one penny at the top of the phone when the camera was over the hole. Now I just slide the phone against the pennies and I know it will be in the proper location for a good scan.
