IMV the LS2000 has perhaps a little more shadow separation and about 
identical ODR if you use 16x multiscanning. With 1x and probably 4x 
scanning it has less useable ODR than the Polaroid 4000, thanks to a lot 
more CCD noise. 

It may seem obvious, but the reviews of both at my site have samples so you 
can decide for yourself.
