Go for the CanoScan 8600F. That's what I researched and bought. I LOVE it. It is a really great scanner. You may have to look around for a deal, or try to do the whole coupons or money off with Google checkout. But it is worth it. It was one of the best scanner picks in one of the computer mags that we get. But I can't remember which mag or the month now. LOL But it was pretty recent.
