I want to get into photography but I don't really know what one to get..
The sort of stuff that I want is:
A pretty high quality image.
I want it to be able to take pictures quickly so I can make like sequences (Like where they you take like 5-10 shots of an action sequence and layer them together..?)
I don't really know what else I want in it but yeah...

Alright then, here is a quick list of what you should be looking at:
Pentax:
- K100D
- K100D Super
- K10D (USED)
Canon:
- Rebel XT
- Rebel XTI (USED)
Sony:
- Alpha A100
Samsung:
- Digimax GX-10
Olympus:
- E-410
- E-500
Nikon:
- D40
- D40x, D50, D70, D80 (USED)
These are for NIB purchases. If you wanted to go the used route you could fit some nicer cameras in there. Also this is main models as of now, If you are willing to go last year models, you could save and few bucks and get a 'nicer' camera.
Hope this helps

Yes No
The biggest thing I could recommend is going to a store and actually holding the cameras. It doesn't matter if you have the nicest spec camera if you don't like to hold it.
I am bias towards Pentax, just like some people are bias towards Canon and Nikon, but the three models that I would be looking at highly would be:
Pentax K10D
Canon Rebel XTI
Nikon D80
Granted a little over budget, but all worth it.
Hope this helps

SLR means single lens reflex
the other choice would be a point and shoot camera but you loose allot of options with that
(with point and shoot digital you tend to get more fun options like changing the colors in you image rather than in SLR were you get things like exposure compensation and fully manual settings with double dials for shutter speed and aperture )
as always i will recommend this
http://www.amazon.com/Canon-Digital-.../dp/B0007QKN22
canon digital rebel XT /350D for around $600
