Forum Computer Peripherals : Scanners [Solved] Flatbed scanner recommendation

I want to replace my old scanner and can't seem to find exactly what I want. Any suggestions? It will be getting light use at home. This is not for an office.

Must-haves
Flatbed
Sheet-feeder attachment (sometimes I can a page from a book, mostly I scan photos)
Network scanner (not just USB)
Less than $300
Good quality photos scanner (not so concerned about text quality or OCR)
Not as part of an all-in-one printer

Nice-to-haves but not required
Wireless
sheet feeder accepts photo-sized sheets

Any suggestions? Flatbed scanners that can be connected to a network don't seem to exist for less than $300.

I purchased this and have been happy so far.

Image quality is good enough for what I need.
Scanning to the network works like a charm
I also like how, if I scan multiple photos at once, it separates them into different files.

Thanks.
