Next time you are stealing top secret documents from the Russian Embassy don’t use your 1.2 megapixel cell phone camera to copy them.

I've used ABBYY FineReader OCR long time ago, it performed fine on scanned pages. You still had to review for occasional errors, but it worked. If you asked me then about handwriting I would have laughed in your face. I don't know about current state, but I imagine, unless your handwriting is really legible no software will be able to scan it. However then again, I haven't had to do this kind of stuff for 8 years.

Yeah, they did. Its an open source API called Tesseract. I tried it and was really disappointed with the accuracy, and the ease of use. although they must have something better because they're scanning in all those books now. The best one I found to use, from an API standpoint, is Microsoft's MODI library that comes with office. Easy to use, and really accurate.
