The Acer Scanwit ain't bad if you ensure the particular one you get does focus accurately (I had to return the first example I had). The included software (Mira, in Australia) is reasonably competent and fast, and the only problem scans I have had so far have been with very old and thin colour slides. The software attempted to correct the density and cocked it up completely. No problems installing and running, and it does both 24-bit and 36-bit colour density.
