Looks like the Fujitsu ScanSnap S1500 is in the wild and the first user reviews are starting to show up. Fujitsu sent Sam Glover over at Lawyerist a S1500 and he has done a great review of it, including a comparison of his old S500 with the new S1500. Like I said in the video [...]

Though I am neither a lawyer nor live in Delaware, I’ve been enjoying some of the posts on the Delaware Employment Law Blog written by Molly DiBianca.
