Hi all,
I got Canon Canoscan N650U flatbed scanner that needs only USB cord to

operate. It works fine although there are

some quirks. SANE's site lists the driver as "complete",

however at least on OpenBSD it sometimes tries to access

areas beoynd its limitations. There are some smaller issues

too but I don't want to go into that.
All in all, it's OK considering I paid only ~15 EUR for it (second

hand, I don't think those have been in the stores for some time).
