Considering the kit with 18-55 costs 75 euro more than the body only and the 28-105 costs about 250 euro's, u pay 175 euro more in total. For this u get: more quiet zoom, faster zoom, more usefull zoom-range. A good all round lens IMO.
The 18-55 is ok, but just that. And it costs money.... Money it's not worth IMO.
there goes the budget
shall take a look at this other lense then
this it

there's two very similar versions, that is the cheaper of the two.. the more expensive one is better, both optically faster (bigger glass lets more light in) and it has a "Ring USM" motor which allows you to manually override the focus at any time without switching the lense to manual. Focusing is also very quick with the ring motor.
This is the dearer one that I have and Cossiebros has mentioned earlier..
