What kind of digital SLR camera is best for beginners?

I've taken a recent interest in photography – I've always taken photos with a normal digital point and shoot camera, but I really really want a SLR camera for beginners who can take very nice photos, but is a reasonable price. I know nothing about digital SLR, but we've seen so far are the Nikon D40 and Canon Rebel, and Pentax K110 …. Any advice?

The Nikon D40 is probably the best SLR for beginners, especially for the price. Stepping on from there, consider the Canon EOS Digital Rebel XT, the Nikon D40x and the Canon EOS Rebel XTi. The Pentax K100D Super is a good option, but I think the Nikon is better built.
