So I see that Canon has a new scanner out and it says that it is OS X ready. Does anyone have any experience using this yet? I noticed that is says it is OS X ready, but that is through a special plugin in Photoshop 7. I am not planning on dropping 700 dollars for an image editor just to have scanning abilities. Does Photoshop Elements 2.0 have TWAIN ability?
Got a tip for us?

Apple's Image Capture program that comes with Jaguar has Twain capability. Also http://www.hamrick.com/ makes a software called Vuescan that supports many scanners under Mac OS X.
Also GraphicConverter supports Twain:

I would add though that scanners are becoming obsolete with the advent of digital cameras. There is much better digital camera support under Mac OS X than scanner support. Just look at the iPhoto support pages on http://www.apple.com/iphoto/
