I think the DC-240 is awesome too, but unfortunately I think it is too
expensive for a camera. It costs more than US$ 685 here in Portugal, more
than a good dishwasher machine, which I need more than the camera :-))

I'm more interested in Mustek MDC-800 which also has USB/Serial, but a has
lower quality and less memory than the Kodak one. This costs about US$278
here. Unfortunately it's not yet supported, as the gphoto developer
working on it only got the programming docs this week.

Anybody has one of those and cares to comment on their quality? I'll
probably end up buying that one and work on the driver too.

Regards,

Gabriel
