I have swung both ways from french press to drip and even dabbled in (gasp) instant. Currently I'm using a drip setup, but not really enjoying the amount of waste (grounds+filter) so I may investigate a metal mesh drip cone/cup thing. As I have never owned a hand grinder, I've always ground at home, or resupplied with store-bought ground coffee. Recently however, I ran into a guy in Death Valley who had the classiest coffee grinder I've ever seen. Apparently he has a friend who imports them and sells them on ebay for between $10-20. I didn't get the name of the ebay seller but searching brought up a couple different varieties.
Here's a German version that has gotten some fairly good reviews (and also costs 4x as much as competitors)

And here's the Ebay search page:
