If you're Nikon, then a D3100 or D5100, for Canon it'd be a T3i or T2i, budget willing, in all cases. I moved staight from a Canon G9 to a Canon 5D MkII and never regretted it one bit, so it depends on the budget a lot.
There's no clear advantage between Nikon and Canon, IMHO, with both being good. Sony and Pentax are very good also, but you get lens-limited if you get really serious. Canon has the widest selection of super-teles, but, other than that, there's no really clear advantage. Below super-tele ranges, all of the four brands mentioned have good lens selection at "competitive" prices.
