Oh, I see :)
I guess that rules out Canon CanoScan LiDE 220 too? The small size would be very convenient for (And I liked the price as well ;) )

Unfortunately Epson doesn't sell refurbished scanners here in Denmark.
What about the Epson V370? I know it has a lower DPI, but how much does that really matter, when I primarily is going to use it with my grainy Lomography pictures? ;)
I also saw that there is wide range of "standalone" film scanners. Are they worth considering?
Something like this:

Good question, but I think nothing goes cheaper than the Recesky TLR 35mm. It's a $15 DIY camera, quite tricky, but not hard to build and easier to use.
I have one, and I'm in love with the results.

I got a Canon 9000F MKII and I love it. It's super fast and you can do 35mm, slide and medium format film.

If film cost is a problem for you, may I recommend you to this guy I found on ebay. It is $20 to develop 6 rolls and then he scans them on a disc for you and he mails it all back to you, negs and all. His name is Neil and he is the man, he has so much knowledge about film it will blow your mind, he also sent me a few rolls that he had deep within his freezer to let me experiment with. He has some other deals you can get too if you want prints.

Lomo also cells the experimental lenses that you can attach to the previously talked about compact mirror-less cameras.
I always thought the Panasonic Lumix GFs looked pretty sick. Looked used and you will find a good deal.

Something like this might work.
I believe THIS would work (as long as you have your hot shoe adapter for your Diana flash). It costs $26.50 USD for a set of one transmitter and 3 receivers. So you could up to 3 flashes (any kind) with it.
