Microtek ScanMaker i900 for 6x6 Scans

Does anyone have experience using this scanner for medium format film? CNET
raves about it, but I've had bad luck with flatbed/film scanner combos.
They claim it will scan up to 8x10 transparencies.

Thanks,

Has anyone figured out why Microtek included ICE for prints but not for film
with this scanner?!?!. It has a nice feature set but you might want to
check for other opinions by Googling the net.

I've seen a web page featuring a comparison betweenthe i900 and some
comparable flatbed (I think it was an Epson). The images from the
Microtek were very fuzzy. As far as I can remember, there is a link to
this comparison somehwere on the forums at www.photo-i.co.uk.

You can find samples of the i900's amazing quality on Gary's website.

I also have one and the prints that come off it really are remarkable.
It utilizes glassless scanning which is what is truly needed when
scanning slides and negatives. My scans have not been fuzzy, and quite
to the contrary have produced crisp and clear images.
