IMO you should pick up something that you can grow into. So perhaps get a Nikon D60 or D90 (a bit more than your budget so maybe you can buy it used). If you're into Canon then get an XSi or T1i for about that price. If you decide to go with Canon though, I highly suggest the 40D (a little more "professional" grade than the Nikons and Canons I've mentioned).

Unless you just want a DSLR to take better pix than a P&S, get something that's easy enough to learn but also have features that you can later grow into. In other words, don't get a camera that has just enough bells & whistles that are only good for right now (especially if you're into photography).
