MacMinute reader Tod Abbott notes that Microtek has pushed back the release date for Mac OS X drivers and software for a number of its scanners. The company had previously said Mac OS X support for the ScanMaker 3800, 4800, 4900, 5600, and 8700 would arrive August 15. The status has since been changed to “In Alpha”, with no release date specified. Microtek currently offers Mac OS X support for the ScanMaker 8700, with software for a number of other scanners currently in beta and scheduled for release in September and October.
