Conversion to Disc Brakes?

I'm giving serious consideration to converting my Specialized Crosstrail to Discs Brakes. Yes, the frame is already set up for discs...

Cost must be factored in, of course, and I realize I also need new wheels. Deore would be nice, but maybe not possible. Who else makes GOOD hydraulic braking systems, inexpensively?

I plan on visiting my LBS to get their input, but also looking for more cost effective alternatives.

I don't build wheels, but am very mechanically inclined.

No ---- I'm not nuts!
