Hot off the presses, engadget has posted a very good review/comparison of both the Canon Rebel T1i/500D and the Nikon D5000.
“So, we just know you’re wondering which display we prefer. If we’re being totally candid, we’d take the T1i’s panel in 99 percent of scenarios. As many has recognized, the articulating display just isn’t that useful in the vast majority of situations. It’s cute, it’s intriguing and it’s different, but we just didn’t find ourselves pulling it out all that often. Yeah, you can chalk that up to our distaste of Nikon’s Live View implementation and the fact that we don’t generally use our DSLR as a camcorder, but if you find yourself in that same camp, you too would probably find that Vari-angle monitor sat flush against the body most of the time. ”
