CES 2006: At only US$89, the Canon Pixma MP150 should attract budget shoppers who need a photo printer, a copier, and a scanner to fit a small desk at home.
Until now, comparable multifunctions have cost US$100 or more until vendors dropped the price just before releasing replacement models. Canon claims that this machine will roll out a 4x6-inch borderless photo in 55 seconds.
This model succeeds the MP130, which we found easy to use, although it produced so-so scans. The new Canon Pixma MP150, unlike the Pixma MP170 released in August, doesn't have a screen to preview photos or slots for digital memory cards. Instead, you can connect a PictBridge camera or digital camcorder to a front slot on the MP150 to print pictures sans computer.

Good for the price - just make sure you don't ever want to use it with Linux, as there is zero support for that.

True, but the same can be said for most printers on the market. Especially ones pitched squarely at consumers.
