I was looking into the Nikon D40 and D40x atm, as I can get them for a pretty good price at my work right now and I've heard REALLY good things about them. But again, I'm new to the game so if anyone has some feedback, suggestions etc, I would LOVE to hear it.

Just remember that the D40 and D40X have no focus motor on the body, so you have to buy lenses with a built in focus motor, or be good at manual focusing. I'd be more inclined to say find a D50, then you can use screw driven motors, which are slightly cheaper.
