Well, dick smith has a canon scanner which is supported by sane for $99 I
think. It was marked down to $88 a couple of months ago. Full color
flatbed scanner 1200dpi.
I believe it was a Canon 1200UB, being a USB scanner. They also have some
cheap parallel models. Most places have sub $200 scanners. Quite a few
like chandlers or any home electrical place will have them for under 100.
