Absolutely. I use a Fujitsu ScanSnap scanner[1], along with the software that comes with it. Automatically OCRs both sides and then stores it on disk. I don't even have to name files as they are full-text-searchable in Finder on OSX. Check out Ryan Waggoner's post[2] on this (where I got the idea from).

The Fujitsu ScanSnap is the greatest piece of hardware ever. If you use OS X, you can also get DEVONthink (not free). Way better than Evernote. Combine it with DropBox, and away you go.

  Another opinion (mine) is that DEVONthink is a legacy single-user clunker that is inferior to Evernote in every way that matters--stability, speed, and ease of use. And woah, it can sync across machines! Putting a DEVONThink DB on Dropbox does not work[1]. It corrupts the DB contents. (Totally agree about the ScanSnap, though.)
