Hello,
I'm thinking about getting one of these, but there is one thing left which bothers me. It's interface uses usb 1.1, right?
Now, that's slow, but on the Nikon website is stated, that a full resolution scan with no filters online lasts 41 seconds. Well, this would be okay for me.
But... I wonder if the data tansfer is already included, or if I have to wait another - say - 2 minutes until the big file is on my computer...
Can anyone of you guys can say something about this?

I have a Coolscan IV-ED. Never timed it, but 41 seconds sounds about right - including transfer to the PC.
It isn't the fastest scanner in the World, but image quality is very good. I'm very happy with mine.
I bought it brand new some years ago - before the V was introduced. Never had any issues. Make sure you download the latest version of Nikon Scan. I'm running Windows XP, not sure how it works with Vista.
I believe you can get one very cheap these days. Have fun!
