The Fujitsu ScanSnap S1500M is the scanner I've be lusting after

http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B001XWCQO2/ref=ord_cart_shr?%5Fencoding=UTF8&m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&v=glance

and the smaller version "ScanSnap S300M Clr 600DPI USB 10PG Adf Mobile  
Scanner"

I don't have one yet but have heard good reviews from several  
sources.  I'm looking to go paperless in the next year or so.

The idea is to scan a document and then have OCR allow the text in the  
scanned documents allow searching using Spotlight.
