US$900 used to buy an SLR and scanner will still have the operating costs of batteries, film and processing. US$1000 for a p-n-s digital camera including card readers and bigger capacity storage media still saves you a lot of money - even if you decide to print the photos at US$0.50 per 4x6 print (you get to choose which ones to print and how many).
FYI, some digital cameras have red-eye reduction built-in.
