Buy both.

Seriously.

Pop down to the local Wal-mart or bike shop and buy a hand powered pump. Cheap. Lasts a long time. Portable. Good exercise.

Then start saving up for a "real" compressor. If you do much of your own mechanic work, an air compressor makes life much nicer in a dozen different ways.

HTH,
