Pros: easy to use and small. well worth the price!
Cons: can't fax directly from the scanner, with efax you can send a digital file.

This thing is awsome. All I have to do is put my paper into the auto feeder and press the green button. It turns them all into a PDF right on my computer! It recognizes if it is in color and makes the PDF color. And it's fast, like 18 pages per minute and it scans both sides at the same time. It ships with a full version of Adobe Acrobat 8.0 Standard (that's worth about $299 by itself) and OCR software that actually works!

I bought the ScanSnap to finally get rid of paper, my multi funtion device and fax machine in my office and couldn't be happier.
