This does most certainly *does* have a win.

When a new user uses the LiveCD, most often they look through all the
menus first, when they see an ugly icon like the one on gnome-pilot, it
makes Ubuntu itself look lagging behind, like things haven't been
updated. Also it makes it look unprofessional, have really out of the
place icons.

The patch that I have given, makes the menu icon use the generic scanner
icon from the current gtk icon theme or fall back on the gnome-icon-
theme.

This has the advantage of given the 'PDA Devices' menu entry looking in
place (ie. tango icon styled) and not look outdated. Also, if the user
then changes the icon theme, this changes accordingly, if the icon theme
has a scanner icon.

Although ideally, we should also change the application icons (ie. the
ones that the software uses for about dialog etc.), this is a first step
towards replacing them.
