Take a look at the Epson 1650/1660 or 2400/2450 scanners.
The SANE version provided with Libranet 2.8 (1.0.10-1) supports them
directly, which is just as well since the latest
Epson backend seems to have problems.  NBD since xsane works perfectly,
including turning on the slide backlighting.

Note: do not consider the Epson 1670, which is not supported.
