And do a whole roll of 35mm film while I watch Seinfeld. I think that Pacific Image does have a whole-roll scanner, but the reviews of their scanners are generally in the area of 1 1/2 stars out of 5.

Mind you good scans take me so long that I often don't have time to scan as much as I would like. I took 14 rolls of 120 film on my August holiday and have only scanned 4 frames so far.
