Andre, I ran the numbers.

With consumables figured in it is surely cheaper
to order selected prints from a website or a kiosk
(or Ritz camera) than to invest in an inkjet.

Having said that, I have cut down costs significantly
by purchasing 8 1/2 x 11 high quality inkjet matte paper
(50 sheets = $14.99 at BestBuy), cutting the sheets
into four 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 sheets (200 sheets for $14.99)
and printing them out on my Epson PhotoStylus 750.
I saw this printer advertised for $99.99 in an eCost
catalog last week. Now most of my costs are limited to
the color ink which has actually gone up in price. I figure
I can get at least 60 prints for about $15 to $20 bucks.

The model printer I own does a good job, but not photo
quality-like unless I use the glossy photo paper.

You may be better off waiting for the next generation printers,
but I still believe you will be surprised about what is out there.
