I've been looking at the Minolta PS 7000 as well for our needs -- one of the reasons we were looking at it over a digital camera in a planetary stand was the autocorrection for page curvature and other automated image enhancements. Has anyone actually used this scanner and give feedback as to how good it actually is?
