My best advice to u is just get those package which gives u quite a number of freebies. Then you start increasing your items bit by bit according to what u need/want. Never rush into buying things.
And very soon TS will notice that those freebies were free of charge but mostly also free of real use / value. Cheap filters, flimsy tripods, funny little brushes sold as "cleaning kits" and what else some shops push into the bags before it's getting more dusty on the shelf.
Get the basic kit with kit lens, that's it. Don't get anything else just because the shop offers it "by the way you should also get...". Additional accessories are ok but first read up and see what is useful, good and recommend. A tripod needs a few more considerations (there's even an extensive guide here), a rocket dollar blower serves better than a tiny freebie. Choosing a filter will bring along some knowledge about the types, pros and cons. In the end it's a conscious decision instead of just bagging stuffs that is marked as "foc". There is no free lunch.

"which brand is more suitable for me"..... errrrm, Canon?
Yes just get the 500D. Can't go wrong there.
Whichever system you start off with, it is the same initially to a newbie. It makes no difference.
But as one grows and matures, often one finds deficiencies in his own system, and something marvellous on the other systems. And just as often, he will be euphoric to find his own systems pictiure colour better than the OTHER systems...
This goes on. Until one reaches the stage of Masterhood. Then nothing makes a difference. Form becomes Empty, and Empty becomes Form. And Canon is no longer Canon, and Nikon is no longer Nikon. It finally makes no difference.
Sorry sorry, I am talking c--k there. Forgive me...:thumbsup:

i'm also looking to upgrade to a dslr from my fuji s6500fd. Currently contemplating either a Sony A350 and Canon 450D...anyone has any views on the 2? which will have better low light performance?

I would imagine that the difference is negligible.
I own neither, so I can't give any conclusive remarks.
I don't think any CSer owns both either!
How dark is your 'low light' ?? you probably need flash or tripod if it's dark.
