We need a new document scanner for our office. I have an ideal "vision" of the perfect scanner, but I can't find anything similar for sale so I'm wondering if it exists. If it doesn't, I can't beleive nobody has made one.

It should be a simple, stand-alone appliance. On the back it should have just power and network sockets. On the front is a single, giant button.

To set it up, you plug it in and it gets assigned a network address by DHCP. There is a web interface you can access by browsing to the device's IP where you can configure what you want the scanner to do - options like uploading to a cloud storage service or saving to a network drive.

To use it, you just ram your paper in, press the single giant button and it scans and uploads a jpeg to wherever it's been set up to save to. Any computer in the office can then get access to that file. Simple.

Does that exist? If not, can anyone reccomend anything that might get close to that sort of experience?
