A cheap solution would be to buy a normal scanner that has a
slide/negative accessory with it - Epson for example have them on
several models.
The downside is the slide scanning resolution would only be as good
as the scanner resolution - which would not give very high quality
due to the small size of slide.

Whilst not having the resolution of a dedicated film scanner, a flatbed such
as the Epson 1670 has an optical resolution of 1600 x 3200 dpi. Not *quite*
sure what that means - but even at 1600 dpi, it would give an image of about
2250 x 1500 pixels from a 36mm x 24mm slide - putting it in the same
ballpark as a 3 - 4 MegaPixel digital camera.
