Which One To Buy?

I am considering learning photography along with little J, and have been doing some research on digitle camera for a few days.
The more I check out, the more confused I am. There are so manydifferent mades/modules out there in the market, with so much slightlytechnical differences: the lens, the resolutions, the body..
Most of the websites, or magazines comment that most of the brand namesare good qualities, as a consumer, we just need to figure out what wereally want to do with this camera.
Honest speaking, I am totally dummy & brand new in this area, how I surpose to know what I really want?
All I can say right now is, I just want to learn take some good pictures, and hopefully develop a hobby and some passions..

Looks like too many choices can cause some anxiety too..

The only good part is, I am kind of a simple person and will stick to my choice once making up my mind..
now I am really just leaning towards to Nikon D80.. Let's see.
