Oh, I knew right off the bat what the delay was about, no worries.  However, 
the one consistent hangup I am seeing so far is with scanning multiple pages.  
For instance, the first page scans beautifully, but when scanning any 
subsequent pages, Docuscan just hangs indefinitely while processing the page 
until I eventually close the window with cmd+w.  And, sure thing, I will be 
sure to have a good look at the help file. <grin>  Thank you for the work you 
put into it!
