D40, XTI, there all pretty much the same thing. Dont look soo much at the megapixels unless you plan on blowing up huge images, it comes down to what feels right in your hands. I have small hands and although i love the Sony Alpha, i was just too big and i couldnt imagine shooting with that thing everyday. Go to any camera store, pick up both cameras, and see which one is better FOR YOU, not for everyone else.
True. I would think a used Nikon D70 would be a good choice. About $400 and has some advanced functions that will be useful if you learn more about photography. Plus, as it's last year's model, the main depreciation hit has already been taken. No need to buy new if you are just getting into photography.

Or you could get the amateur's camera, the pentax K10-D
Pentax K10-D
