Be one of the first in the United States to have this just released
photo scanner which one reviewer called "the best scanner under $2,000"
Here's from Epson's press release:
""The EPSON Perfection 4990 scanner is the ideal scanner for
demanding professionals. It has a resolution and DMax that are
comparable to many dedicated film scanners at affordable prices,"
said Philip Amato, product manager, image capture products, Epson.
