While the thread is passing, may I take the opportunity to ask about
support for the HP C5101A PhotoSmart S20 USB film scanner?

I have had a quick look at the url above, but didn't spot it. Anything
known?
Would it be naive to hope that it might share at least the same USB
interface firmware with supported HP scanners?

TIA,

Adrian
