 scan-snap is amazing November 17, 2008
The scan snap is truly amazing. I have scanned hundreds of pages of files in a very short time. This product scans both sides and automatically makes your files into PDF files. Scan time is so fast that
it's hard to believe. I would recommend this product whole heartedly.
Incredible scanner November 8, 2008
I work with documents for a living and often need to scan hundreds of pages of documents from a variety of sources in a single session. The ScanSnap has improved my life immeasurably.
The fastest speed scan is blindingly fast, but you need perfect source material to use it -- if your document was stapled, on lightweight paper, or otherwise imperfect, the scanner will suck up pages so fast that you will have a jam or skipped pages due to more than one page feeding at a time. Fortunately, the second-fastest setting is still phenomenally fast and virtually eliminates all such paper-feed problems.
In addition to stacks of paper, I also use the ScanSnap for some non-standard uses with great success. For instance, I have cut books apart with an exacto and scanned the pages so that I can search the book. The scanner had very little problem accepting the cut pages, even when some edges were ragged. I also cut up some magazines (for the same reason) and the scanner handled the much lighter paper stock with no problem.
The software is fine, though not great. It does allow you pretty good recovery from mishaps -- i.e., you don't have to start over if you hit a paper jam or other complication.
I don't use the OCR so I can't comment on its strength or weakness -- I use and strongly recommend Acrobat for this purpose. Its OCR is the best I have tried and it's a must for anyone who has serious document management needs. Fortunately, the ScanSnap comes with Acrobat 8 Standard, and for most users, this is plenty of power.
Note that Acrobat 9 Standard cost $269 new, so this is a significant addition to the value of the scanner, which is pricier than many other models, but well worth it, in my opinion.
 HArdware great, software not so much... October 30, 2008

Been using this scanner for a few weeks now and basically, I'm pleased. Hardware works very well. I scanned-in a 300-page manual with varying thickness paper in just a few minutes without any feed problems or other errors. Works quickly and accurately. However, the software that comes with the machine is a bit lacking. It does not have a TWAIN driver, so you're stuck with the software supplied by Fujitsu. The main program, Scansnap Organizer, does an adequate job of organizing, viewing and managing scanned documents. However, it has only very rudimentary editing and modification capabilities. So, one has to run a separate supplied program, Adobe Acrobat (Version 8; not the current version 9), to do much with the documents. In addition, the OCR software supplied only works with documents scanned-in using the ScanSnap scanner. So if you want to make other PDF files searchable, or convert them to text for editing, you need to have another OCR software program available.
Great Scanner October 18, 2008
So quick and easy to use. I had no idea scanner would work this great. Copies are clearly scanned only problem with it is you cannot put too many papers in at once they all scan together.
 Misadvertisement by Amazon October 4, 2008

Amazon advertised it as Fujitsu fi-6300 but delivered me a ScnaSnapS510. The retail price listed was for the fi-6300 and the list price was for scansnap. They admit it was an error on their side but what I notice is the picture was changed from what I ordered. I will be very cautious buying through Amazon again.
