Sounds too good to be true: very high DPI (oversampled CCD? -- good to 
suppress grain aliasing), new optics, large batches for 35mm, high 
reliability. As an owner of a just broken KM 5400-II I can value the latter.

As to speed they say 12.3msec/line. I saw the older 4990 does 17msec/line; 
can anybody comment about the scan speed of the 4990 in practice, say for 
4000dpi?

Anybody seen or tested one already?
