It's really up to you about which one you want to get, and will mostly depend on how big the things you want to scan are, and what you want the output to be (color or b/w, jpeg or tiff, etc.).
Regardless, we'd be happy to host the materials if you'd like to donate them to the archive!

All the books I'm preparing have PG clearances as public domain.
I've scanned 15 so far (of a collection of about 100), and have created djvu editions of two so far. I don't have the commercial version, so they aren't what you'd call highly compressed--no better than tgz of png images.
I'm also like to connect with other people interested in creating digital facsimiles of books.
