When I took a japanese intro course at my college the teacher told me around 2000 kanji to be able to read a newspaper fairly easy.

Searching around my own finds that you need around 3000-5000 to be fluent enough in kanji.

Personally, I just want to be able to have conversations & read and write some. I guess it depends on which direction you're headed.
