A little tip: check out Epison's Clearance Center on their website if you're
in the market for one of their scanners. I secured a Perfection 1660 Photo for
half the price of a brand-new 1670. (Except for the chipset inside, the 1660
and 1670 seem to be identical in every way.)

Haven't quite gotten it working with FreeBSD and SANE but that's due more to a
lack of time to figure out exactly why SANE can't see the scanner on the bus.
