Go over to dpreview and read the threads on this exact question on the Nikon 
SLR, Canon D300, Canon DSLR, and Olympus SLR forums.  The 300D/D70/10D/E-1 
debate rages on, and on, and on.  Each forum will offer it's own biases and 
religion.

If you can't spring $1600-1700 for an E-1 with the 14-54/2.8-3.5 lens (28-108 
equiv), and you have to have a kit, then I'd consider the D70; it's lens is 
much better than the 300D's.  If you don't need a kit, there are other lens 
options.  But for a business use, I'd consider the E-1 before the other two, 
lower-end cameras.
