>From past reviews and personal experience with the 4870, I have the
impression that while Epson's marketing claims substantially inflate
expectations, the scanners themselves are still excellent performers
and a great value.  So if you expect it to outdo your (working) 5400,
you'll probably be disappointed, but if you expect the best consumer
flatbed you've seen, there's a good chance you'll be satisfied. :)
