Mike,

Your terse reply wasn't quite right. While the 2450 ($399 at the Epson site)
has
a higher model number, its price is **less** than Katherine's 1680 ($800 or
more
depending upon the model).

Epson considers the 2450 a personal scanner, while the 1680 is called a
professional unit. From what I was able to find out on Epson's site, the
1680
has a higher DMAX and can handle up 8 x10 slides/negatives (with an optional
adapter -- which is included with their 1680 Professional models).

Dontcha wish that the numbering sequence has some relationship to price?
Maybe
Epson doesn't know that it's selling scanners in AMERIKA.
