The XSi/450D is a good camera, but it has two niggles. The noise performance (especially in darker and OOF parts) is better in newer models (T1i/500D, T2i/550D, T3i/600D, XS/1000D, and 1100D). And the 18-55 IS kitlens that came with the kit version often did not focus accurately with the camera, so be sure to check that (in wide angle mostly).
The 450D has a nice live view implementation already. Personally I would prefer the 550D for its better higher ISO noise profile. I have the 450D myself, by the way.
Have you thought about lenses yet? They very much influence what photos look like, more than a different body.
