for studio and landscape choose nikon, better color and sharp
for every day use choose canon, faster and more sensitive auto focus motor
Accessories is not a problem at all, you won't use them most of time.
About the spec:
Canon T1i has 16 megapixel, and also win the video capture, full HD 1080P. Price: $800
Nikon D5000 has 12 megapixel, and 720P AVI. Price: $850
but anyway, for me, that's not the important part.

Think about what is the most your camera use for.

If this is your first SLR Camera, forget too choose a right lens.
when you buy a lens for APS-C body, the focal length must mutiple by 1.6 (ex: 50mm x 1.6 = 80mm)

Nikon D5000 has no Auto Focus Motor which may cause many restrictions if you want to buy other classical Nikon lens without build-in SWM.
I think Canon 500D is a much better choice, plus a 17-40L lens.

If you want Nikon, I recommend D90 (about the same price as D5000). It gets much better screen, build-in AF motor, sub-screen, and more comfortable using for a normal male hand.

I think you can't go wrong with either choice.  They are both good cameras and all have more accessories than you want to pay for.  Just go to the shop and try them out, pick the one that feels most comfortable for you.
