I for one, would rather get a David SLS3 scanner if I had the money.  I think Structured light scanners provide the best results as long as you can control the ambient light.  Barring that (I don't have $4-5K at my disposal), I just bought a Shining 3D Einscan-S scanner, which is a small desktop Structured Light scanner like the David SLS scanner.

Also the Atlas 3D is a great laser scanner, but like all laser scanners it has certain drawbacks.  However, with some post scan work, it can produce high quality scans that rival output from much more expensive scanners.
