the XS has a quite decent lens that comes with it. ONly issue is the view finder somewhat small. XSi is better in that respect but pricier..

Same here. I am a beginner and I also picked up the d90 from costco. I upgraded from a D80

+1 the d90 is easier to use than the d80 IMO. It also has a INFO button which the D80 Lacks.
