I'd vote for the Canon Rebel/XT.
I had Canon point and shoots from the start. I decided to go the SLR route for the same reasons you mention. Since all of my old lenses from my film SLR's were obsolete, I could start from a blank slate. After looking at Nikon and Canon, I came down pretty hard on the Canon side.
Better battery life. Amazing lens lineup. Fewer artifacts from in-camera sharpening (to my eye). I bought the original Rebel planning to spend most of my money on lenses at first, ,knowing that the bodies would continue to get better and come down in price. I meant to get a new body by now but I haven't felt enough restrictions from the Rebel to do it yet. I'm having too much fun taking pictures to shop!
