From the pictures I found, it looks like the Canon has about a 12 mm wide frame at its narrowest. The OpticBook frame, on the other hand, has a width of about 4 mm, so it can scan much closer to the spine than the Canon LiDE 700F.

I have the OpticBook 3600, and I have been quite happy with it, except for having to boot Windows to use it...
