Get rid of the paper trail with the NeatDesk ($400). This compact ADF (automatic document feeder) scanner helps you declutter your desk and empty your filing cabinet, leaving more room for important stuff. Like snacks. With one-button scanning, the NeatDesk scans up to 10 receipts, 10 business cards and 10 documents at once (or a single 50 page document), and then organizes the copies and extracts the info for digital use. You can scan in a stack of business cards and populate your address book, or scan in a pile of receipts to auto-track your expenses (export to Quicken, Excel or Quickbooks), or scan in a document and turn it into a searchable PDF. The auto-organization and character recognition technology worked surprisingly well on the Mac unit we've been testing, and is going to make next year's IRS holiday a little easier to deal with. With versions available for Mac OS X and Windows, you'll be able to organize your office no matter if you're a Mac or PC.

Just because you need your valuable data to be portable doesn't mean you should put it at risk. Most flash drives can be damaged if dropped, and are vulnerable to water and the elements. The Flash Survivor ($38/8GB; $48/16GB; $88/32GB) is a durable, water and drop resistant flash USB drive that puts other portable flash drives to shame. It's encased in anodized aircraft aluminum, has a 200M waterproof seal (perfect for an unexpected dousing or a covert Scuba trip to your nemesis' underwater lair). Although it won't shoot laser beams, the Survivor does feature a shock-dampening collar to protect against impact and vibration damage, and comes with a 10-year warranty and a set of dog tags.
