DSLR NEWB! help!

I know its late, and sales start in the near near future. but any help would be greatly appreciated here! thanks

Now that i have your attention.
tmrw is boxing day and im looking to take the plunge into a dslr camera. there are cameras on sale etc etc.
i have dont have a preference between Nikon or Canon. but those are the only 2 i will consider.
Price Range. 500-600$ Before Tax. I am a beginner. this is my FIRST DSLR so please do not suggest something thats thousands of dollars.
ive read around and i understand, buy a decent body and spend the money on glass...

here are a few options i have come across:
Canon EOS Rebel XS DSLR Camera With 18-55mm DC Lens Kit Price: 479.99
http://www.futureshop.ca/catalog/pro...gon=&langid=EN

Canon EOS Rebel XSI 12.2MP Digital SLR Camera With 18-55mm IS Lens, 58mm UV Filter & Bag Package Price: 599.99
http://www.futureshop.ca/catalog/pro...gon=&langid=EN

Nikon D3000 With 18-55 and 55-200 zoom lens and gadget bag Price: it says 749.99 in the link but is on sale for boxing day at 549.99
http://www.londondrugs.com/Cultures/...0&ProductTab=3

I am leaning towards number 2 and 3.

Any other cameras i should be looking at? links? etc...

i know its late but ill check this page alot til morning so let me know what you think!
thanks,
