Interesting.  So how long would it take 
to scan a 35 mm negative at 5080 dpi?

It might be interesting to pit it against 
the Nikon or the SprintScan.

As I mentioned on the list, I may hang on 
to the Nikon for a bit, unless/until it 
screws up in a more obvious way.  The 
banding I do see (rarely) is probably too 
subtle to make an impression on the gorillas 
at Nikon service <g>
