Nikon girl here too! I started w/ a D50 and now have a D300. LOVE LOVE LOVE it! I love the way Nikons feel in my hands. But, I don't have anything against Canons. As the others said, it's totally personal preference.
I think I'm going to agree with whoever said to go ahead and get the kit lens. I know that eventually, you are going to want better glass. But I shot w/ just my kit lens for about a year and was thrilled to pieces w/ my pictures. Once you learn your camera (manual!!) and know a little more about your style and what kinds of lenses you will want, then you could start saving toward and puchasing lenses. But that kit lens give a fairly good range for shooting to start with.
