Hi Kellie, I read up on a number of scanners before I settled on the Canon DR2080C. I chose it for the duplex scanning and ADF feature. With as busy as my life is these days with work, dragon boating, some guitar playing and my other interests I don't think I would scan abook if I had to do it on a flat bed. I have had more time this week because I am trying to get over a cold here. Don't be surprised that times I don't post a lot.

As for scanners, you name it and someone has one. <lol> I'm using my beloved hp4c scanner--one of those rare and precious legal-sized scanners. Kellie
