We've had great satisfaction from READIRIS, which comes out of the box 
able to recognize a number of European languages.  ReadIris for Middle 
Eastern Languages, including Hebrew, looks to be about $500, but that's 
from irislink.com themselves.  There may be an educational supplier who 
can sell it for less.
