No TWAIN support!

Fujitsu ScanSnap iX500 (PA03656-B005) Duplex 600 dpi x 600 dpi USB / Wi-Fi Color Document Scanner
Fujitsu ScanSnap iX500 (PA03656-B005) Duplex 600 dpi x 600 dpi USB / Wi-Fi Color Document Scanner

Pros: Pretty blue lights, wireless scanning might have been useful

Cons: Does NOT support TWAIN (i.e. can only scan into the included snapscan software).

Overall Review: Seems like nice device if you don't need to scan into a specific TWAIN compatible app (such as document management software) with out FIRST scanning to PDF, then importing. While this may be fine for scanning a document here and there, I was expecting a $400 document scanner to be useful as a, well.... document scanner. This is like selling a printer that would only allow printing FROM the specific software included with printer. Or a USB drive which could only read/saved data from a specific app!! Some consumers would be fine with this, but failing to advertise this significant limitation is neglectful at best. All about the bottom dollar. Imagine there was a few dollars per unit saved by not including TWAIN support. : \ Seriously disappointed Fujitsu!
