Hi Earnest,

O.k., appearantley I mis-read that info about a new Nikon scanner.

I went back to Oliver's review and didn't find that info I quoted.

But, what I was referring to was in one of the fourms on his site (I 
noticed you posted there a few times).

Oliver stated that the V-700 out performed the Nikon 4000 and that 
Nikon has a newer scanner than the 4000, but he didn't have one, so 
he could test it against the V-700.

Sorry for the mis-information. I would never want to start 
a "rumour". Too much "mis-information" out here on the net already. 
We don't need any more. :>)

I think the V-700 will suite me just fine. I'm only interested in buy 
one scanner that will can at least 4x5.

I like what I saw and read on Oliver's review of the V-700, so I'm 
going to go ahead and take a "flyer" and order the V-750 as soon as 
Epson will except pre-orders.

Curious to see what those V-series can do with wet-mounting, though.

Scott
