Coming from bmx,your going to have a bad case of sticker shock.A good hard tail starts out at around high 6's-700sh.at this price range you have weeded out the junk.Look for at least low end(deore) shimano or sram parts.Best to get a good frame and upgrade.Take a spin through my fave.co.page(links)

I would agree with bloghogs do a ton of research and find the best bike for the buck there are many offerings in the market place it is best to get the best frame fork combo and as things start to shear off you should be able to replace them with better parts. learn from research.
