Hey, start small and invest in good glass. My D70 + lens and accessories was like $600 used. You can get a new D60 for something like $500 which still isn't pocket change, but it's worth looking into. I'm sure Canon prices are in line with the Nikon stuff, I just don't quite know which models line up with Nikon as far as entry level vs. pro.
A Canon Digital Rebel XT or XTi would be a great starter camera, and available for a pretty good deal-- around 400-600 depending on how used etc. Plus Canon>Nikon.
