>Our institution is considering the purchase of an overhead scanner
>soon. To my knowledge there are only three makers of overhead
>scanners: Minolta, Zeutschel, and Image Access. We have been
>particularly interested in the Minolta EPIC 3000. The Zeutschel
>Omniscan is far more expensive (too expensive for us) and I only
>recently learned of the Image Access Bookeye scanner, which does not
>have the curvature correction software that the Minolta does (though
>Image Access says this is coming soon).

>Does anyone on this list have experience with any of these scanners? In
>particular, has anyone used the Image Access Bookeye scanner? It is the
>one about which I know the least. Any recommendations or cautions?
>Considering that any of these constitutes a substantial investment, any
>advise would be greatly appreciated.
