        Interesting, because I'm seeking the same. Based on sane's site and
what was at the local staples, I bought a Canon Lide 25 - however the
sane support on openbsd didn't work, better yet, if I boot to windows
to see if the thing is boned or not, trying to install the windows
driver crashes (I get the demoplay.exe has crashed - do you wanna tell
microsoft?).

        Needless to say I don't need the aggravation  - the canon is going
back to the store and based on the reccomendations here I'll look for an
epson.

Hi all,

I got Canon Canoscan N650U flatbed scanner that needs only USB cord to operate. It works fine although there are
some quirks. SANE's site lists the driver as "complete",
however at least on OpenBSD it sometimes tries to access
areas beoynd its limitations. There are some smaller issues
too but I don't want to go into that.

All in all, it's OK considering I paid only ~15 EUR for it (second
hand, I don't think those have been in the stores for some time).
