Aaron,

I've only ever had cheap scanners, and they did the trick for what I needed at the time.

A friend just recently bought a CanoScan...not exactly sure which model, but it does the flatbed thing *and* slides/negs. I think it's the 8400F, but I'm not certain. Wasn't terribly expensive as I recall (under $200) but it had some ungodly specs like 3200 x 6400 color dpi resolution.

This probably doesn't help much, but at least it gives you a data point.
