I purchased the scanner with the adf on ebay for $65.00 because it was not a high resolution scanner. But I never run more than 300 DPI and this unit works fantastic for this.

A document feeder sounds cool.
But when it comes to buying a paperback copy of the book ... this only works on new books. And if you already have a hardcover version, buying a paperback too ... ? Also, if it is an old, out of Print book ...
However, I didn't knew that nowadays scanners became so fast. I am really thinking about getting a new scanner - but then I guess I wouldn't scan enough books that i would need a new one.
