Yet another $99, but I'm sure worth it in the long run.

It's easy if you leave it up to the experts: http://www.pixelgenius.com/sharpener/index.html This software has three sharpeners - one capture sharpener that is used to offset any softness introduced by the digital process or scanner. One specialized softener to use like a brush on certain areas like eyes. One output sharpener to use depending on the output - web, inkjet, etc. Each sharpener has many levels. Everything is done in layers so you have total control and can fade or flatten whenever you want. This is by the Pixel Genius gurus who write all of the Photoshop How-to books. It's invaluable to me.
