Over the years, my wife and I have bought four Fujitsu ScanSnap scanners: A S1500, an iX500, an S1300i, and a portable S1100. To say that we're huge ScanSnap fans would be a bit of an understatement.
It looks like a table lamp, but the ScanSnap SV600 scans material quickly and efficiently, and it takes up minimal space when not in use. It’s also a hoot to watch, but page curvature is a problem.
