hi. my Sony Cybershot does well in shooting still objects. and the zooming and light shading are perfect.
but when i am shooting running kids or waving arms, everything ends up blurry.

can somebody recommend a good SLR/DSLR digital cam?
THANK YOU!

If there is an option to increase the shutterspeed, that'll help a lot. Shutterspeed at around 500 to a 1000 will definately capture a waving arm.

If you don't have much money, try using a Canon Rebel Digital Xt, or a Nikon D50. If you want to go all out and professional, go ahead and get the Nikon D200.

Increasing shutter speed makes the picture look really grainy though.
I mean I go to 400 and it looks grainy --;

let me serenade your soul.

Ummm Speeding up the shutter shouldn't dd grain, grain comes from an increase of the ISO speed, when you have a really fast shutter you just gather far less light, not making things grainy, but then YOUR camera probably tries to compensate for the lack of light by upping the ISO sensitivity and thus makes the image grainy, aso in the end, the way to make an image less blurry is STILL incresing the shutter speed.
I am the minority here.

You should hard set your ISO to something like 100 and then use shutter priority, the camera will try to pick the right aperature for a good exposure.

From what you're saying, I am assuming that you are changing your ISO settings without realizing it.
