HI Lora, 

I'll jump in here. I have the DR2080C which it sounds like the 2580 has
replaced. I have had it for a year and it is a very good scanner for the
money. A year ago Feb it was going for about 600 but I am sure you can get
it for less now. It's rated at 6 seconds a page which can be pushed some. 
Since this was my first scanner I thought having the ADF would be great
which it is. The down side of it is that it is an ADF only. There are books
at times that I just don't want to cut up so I have an OpticBook 3600 on the
way for those times.

Hi Lora, If you don't mind removing the spines, the canon 2580 will scan 
both sides and put anywhere from 10 to 20 pages a minute. That's 20 To 40 
sides a minute depending on the resolution setting used. The cheapest canon 
will cost about 250 dollars as a refurbished machine,  on up. HTH Tom
