I've gotten e-mail from someone who took their LS-30 apart, and
it has exactly the same 12-bit A/D converter chip that the
LS-2000
has.
It's _exactly_ the same hardware as the LS-2000. The only
difference is the firmware, which only allows transferring
10-bits
of the 12-bit data from the A/D converter.

3.6 density range at 12 bits per channel (LS2000) gives the
same density resolution than 3.0 at 10 (LS30). For us
that shoot only negative, both scanners are pretty much
equivalent.
Of course, it would be fantastic if finally somebody
came up with a simple hack to make the LS30s give
12 bits at the same 3.0 density range!
