Buy the SE instead, added software is obsolete.......2002-03-30

I found this was a wonderful scanner. My only complaint is I paid about [amount] more than the SE model for the extra software and discovered all were obsolete and not the full versions. The OCR software was useless, and if you read the Amazon reivews you will find there is a better package from another company.
I did not purchase the fireware adapter but will soon since to speed things up. My advice is buy the SE model instead, and purchase the software on your own.
Epson scanners are great!
