Mike,
Some good comments above -- I'll add my .02
The scanner you've identified is the king of high-end consumer scanners. It is only 1/2 step below the pro scanners that run in the $1000's. It's primarily useful for very high-end photo scanning. As stated above, this is likely well beyond what your needs are.
I've had a great experience with Epson scanners, so I can reccomend the Epson 1250 (~$100) and 1650 (~$160). They're both an excellent value. The included Epson Twain software works very well for image acquisition. If you want to manipulate the images, Adobe Photoshop ($600) is the king. They also have a consumer version call Photoshop Elements ($100) that is great for the basics.
