Newegg has wide selection of digital slr's and they usually have a pretty good amount of honest reviews. That is if you haven't looked there yet. :)

If you're looking for reviews, cameralabs.com has very detailed reviews of most cameras and lenses.  As for an inexpensive SLR, try one of the retailers at Amazon.com.  Thats where I got my canon 70-300 lens
