even if you go full-frame, I don't know how useful the entry-level kit lenses will be as most probably when you upgrade you will invest in quality lenses that cost as much as the entry-level DSLR with kit lenses .... I don't know how someone getting a Sony A350 or anything with that kind of sensor would use whatever kit lens it comes with and use that lens for a full-frame [unless buying expensive lenses with full frame in mind but then that beats the purpose of 'entry-level'] .... the point is that if/when you upgrade to a full-frame, you will probably need to get new stuff anyways
IIRC, futureshop has a deal going on Olympus E-510 with the two kit lenses [14-42 and 40-150] for less than $600. You can't go wrong with that ;)
