It is well worth it to go as low as possible on resolution.  Larry uses 150 DPI - 
that works out to only one quarter the file size of the same image at 300 DPI 
(double in both horizontal and vertical).  It makes a huge difference for 
storage and for bandwidth.  Even 200 DPI is less than half the size of a 300 
DPI image.

If you are happy with the look of a 200 DPI image but it causes OCR issues, 
scan at 300 DPI for more accurate OCRing and then replace it with the 200 
DPI image.  (Not sure of the technical issues of doing this, however.)

As for color, I usually go with only 100 DPI, as the color depth still keeps it 
very readable (and that's 1/9th the size of a 300 DPI image.)
