Hi there.

I have a (no longer state of the art) HP DeskJet 500 B&W printer.
It's been a fine printer.  I heard that it was possible to
convert this printer to a color printer.  
Is it true?
If so, about how much does it cost?  
Is it hard or easy to do the conversion?
Where can I get the B&W to Color conversion kit (if it in fact exists)?

Do you think I'm a fool and should just cough up $300 for a
720x720 color Canon?

BTW...
I saw a nifty looking Canon scanner/color printer/photocopier in one
at office depot for 5 or 6 hundred.  Seemed quite fun.

Thanks tons for any response.
-Julian
