I wouldn't bother getting Smart Score. Neither version is very good; the OCR technology is not yet at the point to be really useful. I have been able to input most scores throught the computer keyboard faster than trying to scan it and fix the seemingly endless mistakes. Right now, the best OCR program for music is SharpEye, but even this program is not adequate to be an efficient way to input music into Finale. Wait a few more years and I'm sure this technology will advance by leaps and bounds.
