Hi,
I use the Minolta 5400 always with digital ice. I haven't noticed any 
softens. Actually it is razor sharp. But I must admit I never really 
tested it.
In my opinion digital ice is a blessing. It is the main reason why I 
upgrade to the 5400 and the Epson 4990. It makes life so much easier. 
Now if it would work with silver negatives it would be even more perfect.
