Regarding Document Scanning:

Some time ago I decided to put my money into a Fujitsu ScanSnap. It costs some hundred Euros but it comes with Acrobat 7 Standard (probably 8 now) and in contrast to nearly every other scanner on the market in the same prize range it scans both sides of a page at the same time. It is a great tool and it works absolutely without flaws. You can set it up the way that you get a OCRed PDF (original layout with text hidden behind, so that searches and cut and pasting is possible) of 50 pages in maybe 5 minutes or less. It's really fast. The time you needed to read this sentence it would have scanned 3 pages duplex.
