One of the agents sitting at my lunch table yesterday had a DocuPen scanner that was pretty slick. It looks like an oversized pen, sweeps down an 8.5 x 11 page with one sweep, and can store over 100 pages before being transferred to your computer. It has a rechargeable lithium battery and can range in price from $250-$400 depending on model and memory capacity. Many times you can't tear a page out of a book or magazine, so looks like a great way to solve that problem. It's much lighter and smaller than the Fujitsu mobile scanner, and may be a better choice for single pages - the portable Fujitsu can still handle a stack of pages, single or double sided. Guess it depends on how much you want to carry! 
Sharon, one of my son's friends got one for Christmas and LOVES it for college. I told my son "don't even think about it" until the price comes down..he loses everything! I've played with his friend's pen and I like it myself, but they're still a little steep.
