Have been using a Canon LIDE30 with Linux (USB) with no problems for 
over a year now.  Xsane setup is automatic (although you may "tune" it 
if you wish) and provides excellent quality Black or Color.  I believe I 
paid $40 for mine - new at OfficeMax!  Have tested it with RedHat, SuSE, 
Mandrake, and of course Ubunto.  I guess your mileage could vary.
