Today I took a step away from just being a herp-nerd by spending $1700+ on camera gear for the upcoming year. After months of research and thousands of reviews (not kidding, unfortunately), I got some great advice from a couple of folks at the AHA Forums and ended up getting a Canon 40D DSLR and two Canon lenses (28-135 & 75-300) with a 3-year warranty.
It comes in the mail in about a week. I am flipping out inside, hard.
