Scanning at 300 dpi produces a good looking scan while maintaining a reasonable file size, and is great for web purposes.
I've read that you really never need to go any higher than 1440 -- and, even then, only if you're planning to print them and want the absolute best quality.
You definitely don't want to go any lower than 300, whatever you do.
