Difference between D90 and D5000

Just wondering what the D90 is actually offering over the D5000 that means it cost £170 more. As far as I can see they are virtually identical apart from the D5000's superior liveview.

Reviews say that the D5000 caters for the beginner with more automatic functions however despite this appears to have all the same features as the D90 in terms of manual function.

Am I right in saying you are paying £170 to have more dedicated manual buttons on the body instead of having them in the camera menu? That is how it appears here:

Please tell me if I am wrong

Thanks
