and any other suggestions will be just fine.
 
If this is your first camera then don't spend to much money at first a kodak easy share type camera works well. As far as your choices the top one does not come with any lenses and the bottom one does they are both the same camera body. Then as you get a better eye and need more features justifying a Cannon, Sony or Nikon with feature you want to use. At that point you will need to think long term once you pick a camera, the lenses you'll keep forever and you will upgrade just the body.
 
They are the same camera, but you want the one with the lens.

The first one is "body only," which means you would need to buy a lens seperately. Unless you already have Canon lenses, you're going to want to buy the second one. =]
 
I would recommend Nikon D40 for a beginner. Because it has very logical menu and settings for beginner so it easy to understand the camera. I'm afraid that Canon might confuse you, especially when you are a beginner but it depends. But the bad thing about Nikon D40 is that it doesn't have no lens motor in body means non-AF-S/AF-I lenses are manual focus only (Nikon D40x has). But I highly recommend D40 because this is the camera what helped me to understand about DSLR's.
