From the reviews I have read if you want a 35 mm film scanner than I would go for the Nikon, if buying new if you pick up one second hand you could add canon or Minolta to the list. The other makes you can buy currently while good are still lower quality then the Nikon range in my option.

I had an Acer model which was reasonable think that has been rebadged as BennQ and don't know if it is still made now, not seen it advertised so don't think so. It had a scssi card as to usb which most seen to be and was 2700 dpi which is low for spec now as I think most are 3600 or 4000. It was the best one I could aford at the time and served it purpose.

It all is down to what you want to do with your photographs if you are wanting just to have them all as digital files then one of the cheaper models would suit your needs if you are wanting to make prints of the same quality as you could get straight from the slide you will need to spend that bit more.

Hope it helps
