I chose this scanner as it has the most positive reviews. I ordered one and loaded all the software per the instruction. Struggled initially as I couldn't find the serial number of the Adobe Acrobat, but it was in package labelled clearly in blue. Apart from that, all went smoothly.
Can't believe how tiny the scanner is just two handful. I expected it to be bigger so it was a nice surprise. The scanner is amazingly easy to use, even for idiot like me. Got mixed up intially as I scan all documents double sided, then realize I had the duplex mode on. In all, I am very happy, it is very fast, just hope it will last for a long time.
No hesitation in recommending. June 08. Thank you to those write the reviews previously. Been most helpful!

The scanner is great - small, compact and speedy. It hasn't caused me any problems when doing large documents and has been easy to use (even for a none techie). Only let down is the software for scanning business cards. It does not give you enough information from the card. It would be a fantastic all round machine if it did this more effectively. I had hoped I could create a spreadsheet from all my manager's business cards but the software seems to produce individual excel sheets rather than allowing a group of card details to be input into one sheet. So this was a real shame. It would be a wonderful upgrade if business card scanning allowed more details to be scanned into a single spreadsheet.

I use one of these at work and it is a superb product as well as being simple to use - a one button press machine.
The ability of an A4 footprint machine to do A3 scans is a real bonus.

ScanSnap S510 can also scan information directly into either Word, Excel or PowerPoint 2003 via OCR using the Scan2xxxx functions integrated into the ScanSnap software or Drag and drop files within ScanSnap Manager to convert to Word, Excel or PowerPoint 2003 editable documents.
To make scanning as simple as possible, ScanSnap inspects each document to decide if a document should be scanned in black and white or colour, what the size of the page being scanned is and eliminate blank pages, all of which serve to speed the scanning operation and minimise your storage requirements.
In addition each document will have misaligned text corrected (Auto Deskew) and each page will be have its orientation automatically adjusted.
ScanSnap also includes CardMinder ver 3.1, an application which can intelligently capture the information from business cards. Cardminder now includes IntelliSync which enables the data to be exported to a number of PM applications.
The information captured is available across the range of Windows applications, simply highlight a person or company name within your document or application, press Alt-F3 on the PC keyboard and the related business card images will pop onto your screen as an instant aide memoire of that persons job function, address, contact details etc.
The underling database can be stored and exported to a variety of PIM software such as OutLook, ACT and Goldmine via the IntelliSync.
Using the supplied carrier sheet provides A3 scanning capability, A3 pages are folded and placed in the carrier sheet, when scanned, Scansnap will automatically stitch the 2 (front & back) images together to recreate the full A3 image.
The carrier sheet can also be used for scanning photos/documents which might be easily scratched or irregular shaped documents which are difficult to feed
otherwise and may cause paper jams.
ScanSnap incorporates a 50 page automatic document feeder, duplex capability and colour scanning within a surprisingly small footprint and is supplied with a full
version of Adobe® Acrobat® 8.0
Note: The ScanSnap device driver does not support the TWAIN or ISIS protocol. Scanned images cannot be acquired directly from a TWAIN or ISIS
