Pretty much the same difference as between Pepsi and Coke or Ford and Chevy
or vi and emacs. Whatever runs in the family...

I'll try to test drive these at my local camera store, just to see
which one
fits my hands better, but your input will definitely sway my
decision.....

That it is the most important step. If you don't _feel_ comfortable with the
camera then it is no good for _you_.

My advise: also try a camera one step up, e.g. a D80. For many people the
D40-class is simply to small and too awkward to handle. It just doesn't fit
the hand.
