[sane-devel] Database of scanners with CCD tech?

[m. allan noah]

Many (most) flatbed scanners are CIS now. ADF machines are more likely
to be CCD. CCD tends to be more expensive, and the carriage has to be
thicker and heavier to hold the fold mirrors, etc. So cost tends to be
a good indicator as well.
