The Fujitsu fi-5120C (at USD $850) looks like the stronger candidate at this point. For the purposes of determining US availability, can anyone verify that the Kodak i40 (at USD $866) is identical hardware to the AV220C2: 35ppm in Simplex or 70 ipm in True Duplex, and per m. allan noah's anecdote, works well with the avision backend, possibly still subject to initialization timeout issues.
