Business card scanners/importing contacts toEntourage/Mac Contacts

[sfscott]

Version: 2008
Operating System: Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard)
Processor: Intel
Email Client: Exchange

Back in the windows days, I used CardScan to scan my business cards and import them to Outlook.

Now, it seems that all the business card scanners out there that support Mac only export to Mac Contacts. Does anyone know a way to import these items directly into Entourage?

Is there an intermediate step to go from Mac Contacts to Entourage without keeping two contact files? BTW, I sync to an exchange server

I doubt anything exists. Entourage does not have a plug-in architecture
nor any APIs to allow other applications to directly interact with it.
Any solution would probably involved some sort of AppleScripting. I
personally haven't seen anything like that to date.
