[OCLUG-Tech] linux-compatible scanners in Ottawa ?

I am looking to replace my old HP IIc scanner, which still works 
but is physically large and requires a SCSI card.

I've been looking at the SuSE and SANE sites and docs. There's some 
contradictory information on the status of Canan LIDE35 and LIDE50 
back-ends. Does anyone have one of these scanners working, and if so, how 
well?

A quick look around Merivale Road yesterday only found Canon scanners, 
maybe an odd HP or two. Who sells Epson in the central area/near-west end, 
which I understand the SANE people are much happier with?

Thanks for your ideas and info,

  Brett
