[QUOTE="cachsux, post: 557887, member: 5529"] But are you comparing todays Diad versus paper? If you remember Diad 1 was heavy,unreliable and prone to vapor locking in the middle of the day causing you to go back to paper. Also few packages had barcodes so the numbers had to be entered manually so I would say it was a draw between someone fast on paper and Diad 1. We noticed the younger drivers who were more into video games were faster than the older more experienced paper drivers on Diad but the expertise was reversed when on paper. Now as more and more barcode pkgs came along the Diads speed came up except when the pkg wouldn`t scan and then you were back to typing them in. I stopped handling packages in anything less than 28' bundles in 95 so my knowledge on the new versions of the Diad are nill but I would still think that scanning a package would make a Diad the winner but if it came to trying to type all the info for each pkg versus writing it by hand it would be much closer a battle.
