I was looking for an all in one solution.
I went for the a samsung SCX-4612 (bacause of a rebate at the time).
Looks like the current street price would be about $350.
In any case it is a laser printer/fax/scanner. It has 600dpi output (laser was a necessity for us), a sheet feeder and a flatbed for when the sheet feeder isnt appropriate.
Although the software doesnt exactly support scan to PDF it is possible (frank this may be an option for you).
It has a copy functio.n, where its actually a scan and print (where you select the printer). Use this with a printer driver based PDF creator such as PrimoPDF and voila! your copy becomes scan to pdf. (for a lot less than some other devices that offer scan to pdf).
The only downside is that the process needs to be driven from the computer unlike the electronic document thingo we have at work with a touchscreen which cost very much more than $345
