if you have the opportunity... try to handle a few DSLRs from a couple companies before you buy. even handle the ones in higher price ranges that you aren't looking into currently... because if you plan to upgrade in the future... it's wise to see if you like the cameras of a certain company all around, to save you from upgrading to a new body from a different company and needing to start all over again with lenses and all that stuff. Make sure you like the feel of the camera (size, weight, shape, ease of access to controls) and the user interface... this is probably the most crucial part in choosing your body in a certain price range IMO. Then buy the one you like best... try not to let the brand influence your decision.
Although I will say stick to either Canon or Nikon as they are the leaders in the DSLR industry and have the most options when it comes to accessories and lenses.
