Besides the higher quality of dslr the biggest advantages are manual control and the ability to change lenses. Their cons include cost and size/weight. While compacts are relatively inexpensive and easy to take with you. You'll find the best shots present themselves when you least expect them. I found it tiresome on vacation babysitting my camera, worrying about it getting damage or stolen. After the glow of purchasing a new dslr wears off you'll realize the time and effort serious photography takes.

FYI, as you didn't mention them, since a few years between compact camera's and dslr's there are system camera's available with interchangeable lenses. They actually are getting closer to dslr meanwhile. Not fully, but definitely something to consider.

Yeah, my fiancee has the Panasonic Lumix G3, and it's a fantastic little camera. I was very impressed with the image quality.

Most serious photographers hate this guy but he makes fairly good all-round suggestions on what to get.

When I got my Nikon D60 4 years ago it was from reading this guy's advice. It has been a pretty good camera, and the only things that bug me about it are the lack of full format and it only autofocuses on Nikon AF-S lenses, as well as only having 3 autofocus zones.

If you have plenty of money to play with I'd just go full format straight away rather than waste $1-2k playing around with entry level gear. It's maybe like $1k extra initially, but they've come down a lot since a few years ago.
