Well, since Jason just got through telling us that he scanned in the 
pile of newsletters, let's ask him what *HE* uses. ;-)

For loose pages, you can't beat an ADF-equipped scanner with dual 
imaging sensors. Scan both sides of the page at the same time. As long 
as the pages don't jam in the feeder, makes digitizing stacks of 
documents painless.
