Reposting what I told someone else about the D60... haven't seen many deals on those other cameras:
I am not really sure what price point to watch for on the D60. There is currently a refurb available with 90-day warranty for $400... http://slickdeals.net/showthread.php?sduid=411431&t=1222041
Really not a bad deal. For $100 more they have it with a 4GB SD card, new. http://forums.slickdeals.net/showthread.php?t=1218133
The best I have seen since November or so was the $470 deal at ritzcamera.com, but it was a one-day deal on December 31... so that doesn't help you much.
I personally would be willing to go with Cameta Camera's "factory demo" on eBay make sure to do live cashback-- go to [url]http://www.live.com ("http://cgi.ebay.com/Nikon-D60-Digital-SLR-Camera-Body-18-55mm-VR-Lens-USA_W0QQitemZ110361505153[/URL) and search for 'wii' click on the 'wii' link next to eBay. Then open the link to Cameta's listing that I posted just above. You should see 8% from Microsoft.
That comes with an 8GB SDHC card and a decent (if no-name) case. The trouble is that this one isn't free shipping, but it would be a US-model camera with a one-year warranty and you would pay about $442 after getting your cashback.
Good luck.

What about the Canon Xsi? I'm in the same boat...

Canon's XSi seems to not be having many good deals right now. Here's someone selling an XSi from a pre-Christmas deal for $535 shipped. http://cgi.ebay.com/BRAND-NEW-Canon-EOS-Rebel-XSi-BLACK-BODY-12-2-MP_W0QQitemZ360137146874QQ. With live cashback that would be $492... you might make sure there is a lens, but they have a picture of the kit box which should include the 18-55 lens and a receipt from December. Make sure they include the lens before buying.
That is a fair deal on the XSi... but only good for one person.
