Sorry for OT, but regarding the Fujitsu, do you cut the spines off your books and throw them away afterwards? And do you read them from PDF's? On what, a regular computer? That seems to be quite a step backwards; I love epub on my ebook, but reading non-reflowable formats is hardship on it. Or do you have an A4/letter ebook?
But does the OCR recognize things like page numbers or chapter names at the top of the page, chapter headers etc? If it just makes searchable pdf's with the same layout as the original pages, it still wouldn't help much. But if OCR software does do that, that's be great - then I can convert also 'normal' pdf's into html/epub.
