What is your P&S? Have you switched it to manual mode when you tried to take pictures in low light? Do you know how to adjust it to take into account strong backlight with the subject in shadow?
Like with a P&S a great DSLR will still require that you understand the principals of exposure and focus to get better and better shots.
If you buy from any of the big, mail order, photo specialty retailers, you can be pretty confident with either Nikon and Canon that you're getting good value for whatever your budget. They keep each other honest. We could argue and argue about which is best, but it would come down to how you plan to use it. Since you really don't know yet, I'd suggest just staying in the low to medium price range.
If you get serious you can upgrade lenses and camera bodies. I'd suggest taking a community college course. Some good reading is suggested in several other threads in this forum.
