ARM Newbie... Where To Start

Note: This was originally posted on 3rd October 2009 at http://forums.arm.com

Hello,

I'm absolutely a newbie for ARM. I've read many articles but couldn't get the point where to start.
ARM7,ARM9,ARM11,Cortex-M3,Cortex-A8... Which one should I start to learn? Most advanced or the basic one?
Which develepmont kit and which compiler you could advice for such a newbie? (I know only C as a programming language) Or alternatively, is an ARM simulator enough for the first steps? Which documents should I read? (a book or a document source on the internet like [url="http://infocenter.arm.com/help/index.jsp"]this[/url])
