The comparisons I've seen of the high res scanners show much more
detail is captured.

I've done tests using 8 vs. 16 bit RAW conversions and I have found
much better results with 16 bit files. Of course you can always
convert to 8 bit after manipulation, and your output might not take
advantage of 16 bit files, but if you are working on important images,
I'd say use the 16 bit files as much as possible.

Do some googling and find out about the newer scanners, then make your
decision based on that. It will of course depend on your needs, budget
and goals.
