Which Camera?

Hi, My brother is taking the leap and is going to be buying a 'proper' camera, I like to think it is my influence!

The question he has asked me is, which one. Ordinarily, I'd have told him to get the Canon 1000d or the Nikon D3000, (probably the Canon because that is the brand that I use), but now there are hybrids. What are anyone's thoughts on this? He is hoping to take beginners classes, would a hybrid given enough control for this?

Any thoughts would be appreciated.
