It may be just a bit too wiz bang on the AI, and too light on the interface for me. I called my piece about it "Dating DEVONThink" http://dougist.com/?p=151 Doug I’m having a little trouble with DEVONThink myself.

She liked the petite size. Since the kids are teenagers, I hadn't considered the dangers of tiny fingers getting in the feed slot, but it is definitely something to worry about. Which one do you use at home? @Thom S

The size of the ScanSnap isn't really an issue—it folds up and is about as big as a plump loaf of bread. The price, however, is steep. Terry White did a great comparison of three scanners, the ScanSnap and NeatReceipts scanners in the mix: http://terrywhite.com/techblog/?p=1121 Check out the video he did. @Chip Cox

It tears through the docs with no problem and is safe; well as safe as any shredder could be. It stops when a finger or hand gets too close to the shredder opening. http://www.fellowes.com/Fellowes/site/products/ProductsSubCategory.aspx?Name=COMMERCIAL_SHREDDERS At home, I have a personal crosscut shredder, that again has the same safety features, and I always unplug it when I am not using it to protected my loved ones.

To save money and desk space, I went with the NeatReceipts Mobile Scanner. After initially getting my backlog of paper through it, the scanner has been perfect for my everyday use.
