everyone - thanks for all your input. I think I'll go with the Epson 1640SU. Now it's just a matter of seeing how much the local suppliers are gonna try to rip me off for :o) jac. • The WDVL Discussion List from WDVL.COM • To Join wdvltalk, Send An Email To: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Peter-in-Sussex has kindly offered too - can I have you as second reserve as it were just in case he has any probs downloading!? I have poked HP in the ear again this morning - the Scanner support is the only UK support team I've dealt with at HP to say they couldn't give a *^% is putting it

Franni, If you don't find someone there to get the drivers for you before I leave let me know and I'll copy them for you. I could always copy them while there as well assuming I bring my laptop, it has a cdrw in it. I noticed many of the Starbucks locations in the UK now have broadband wireless

My t-mobile account that I use at Starbucks runs me $26 per month for unlimited access anywhere in the US. Since I meet clients there and don't maintain a separate office it is cheap in comparison to renting an office even on a 'shared' office plan. Now that they have expanded into Barnes

I adore my Epson it rocks!, and I will *never* buy HP again. My installation CD died on my HP scanner, and they did not have the drivers available on their site. I contacted HP and they told me that the only way I could get the drivers is if the scanner is still under warranty! Fool me once,

anyone else got a suggestion? Try asking a few people who are responsible for looking after scanners what the scanner is and where they got it. If they can instantly tell you that it's a Brand X and that they got it from Dealer Y, that probably means that they are continually calling Dealer Y

I've got a Canon LIDE 30 which I really like. Works great on both the PC and the Mac (even OS X). Best of all from my point of view is it is small, thin enough to fit where I need it to go in my computer desk. I see from the Canon website that they have a newer version out the LIDE 50 as well. See
