What is the difference on all the u581 scanners I am looking on all of them and seams to me is the same scanner but with different price it this true

No, mine uses far language to update and so far I have not found a program to change it to one I can update with. The scanner itself works so far but it looks different than other scanners with the same model. Name.

I don't know the difference between the two--only that one is a newer model than the other. You should research the model numbers.

I'm sorry, i don't have the 6130 scanner.So, i can tell you that the Fujitsu 6140 is a very good and fast scanner.I hope i've helped you.

I really don't remember. But unless you have a special need for very long scans-forget about this scanner-it is junk. I returned mine. Get yourself a Fujitsu SnapScan 1500-really excellent scanner-I love it.

I would honestly say it's more of a document scanner but then I would also have to suggest you contact the Fujitsu people and ask what they have is best for images. I wouldn't by from any other they are the best. Hope this helps.

Are they the exact same models? If so, they might just be trying to sell you the higher priced item by tricking you. If they are the same, go with the lower price. Good luck.

It is basically the same, but the One is a better, improved product. I understand they do not make the Ultra anymore. The Ultra is not as accurate as The One

I had same question!I spent ~ 1 hour... reading all comments for both... doing google search for both part #s... I found that even the Gilsson website only had one product, but they used both names for it !?Finally, I decided to check prices for "used" & "new"... and found that both models were being sold for pretty much the same price after S&H; was added. So, I'm concluding that they are one-and-the-same.The low price of UBM-1 is pretty deceiving... 'cause the S&H; brings it over $20 total... which is about the same as UBM price range w/ S&H.; I had same question!I spent ~ 1 hour... reading all comments for both... doing google search for both part #s...

Well, as of June 2008, there is a post in the CanoScan 8600 vs. 8800 discussion by CM-Monkey (I believe is his moniker) where he reports buying the V500 and the 8800 and his side by side comparison ends with Epson V500 the winner! So, where do we go now with this discussion? I'd rather not have to buy both scanners to do a side by side comparison myself.

I really don't remember. But I have recommended against this scanner. I just bought another Fujitsu scanner and they are the best by far. I have no interest in Fujitsu other than trying ro save people from the grief of owning the Kodak scanner.

Yes it is - I am no techie. It's a good scanner!! Worth paying the extra money to upgrade to this model.

I did all of my scans as jpegs so they were very accurate. If you wanted something that you could edit, I really don't know the answer. One thing to consider... I used the scanner holder that kept it steady while scanning. This made a big difference. Scanning without the holder, everything was out of proportion and not worth doing.

Yea I'm wondering the same. I' d really like to get this and I need a scanner now. Maybe someone can check with fujitsu and let us all know about an update?? Then again it appears so good why change it??

B. Finberg - Thank you for your detailed and thorough response. It seems like this may be the scanner for me, but I am going to take you up on your recommendation to check out dedicated negative scanners as well so I can make the best decision. Ryan

No, the only scanner Uniden says is APCO 25 is the BCD396XT and sells for about $400

I did not purchase this exact item because I think this is an updated version of the one I originally purchased. I returned it. It was extremely difficult to work with in scanning slides, very slow and the color resolution was awful. I eventually purchased a Canon CanoScan 8800F flatbed scanner from Amazon (probably five years ago) and love it! I scanned almost 15,000 slides and it is still going strong. Easy to work with, great for scanning slides, negatives, photos or documents. I have Windows XP and it is compatible. Remember, I purchased it years ago so I am sure there is an updated version of the one I have. I cannot say enough good about it. Not to mention customer service for Canon products is located in the U.S. I have contacted them twice and always received knowledgeable, understandable and quick resolution to my questions. I think I paid right at $200 for the Canon, but it would be worth it at twice the price. I would strongly encourage you to NOT purchase the Pacific Image unit.

I have never used a wand type scanner so I can`t compare them, I purchased this mouse scanner for my laptop because it is small.Gerald M
