The HP S20 film scanner is a popular/cheap choice, from what I 
understand. But it's SCSI-only and not supported at all under OS X. The 
Coolscan V has a comes with a film-strip feeder for negatives, so 
there's no need to cut up a film holder. But I don't know how the 
software would work with long negatives.

(If anyone with a junk X-pan negative wants a first-hand report on how 
it works with the Coolscan, e-mail me.)
