I'm about to buy a scanner and this is currently topping my shortlist.

Second on my list is the Fujitsu Scansnap S1300. They cost the same and have similar software bundles incl. ABBY Finereader; V6 for the Plustek, V4 for the Fujitsu. The only advantage (that I can see) the Plustek has over the Fujitsu is that the Plustek is TWAIN compatible.

The Fujitsu S1500 is third on my list, but it costs more, I don't really need the extra speed and I already have Acrobat.

Anyone have any experience with the Plustek scanner?
Any reason why I should buy the Fujitsu S1300 instead?

I'll be scanning in mostly technical and instruction manuals to be viewed on my KDXG.
