Which Wideangle

I have a dilemma.

I have had a bit of a bonus and want to upgrade to a nice wide angle lens to enhance my landscape work. Im currently only able to use the stock 18-55mm that came with my d5000

I am interested in the Nikon AF-S DX Nikkor 10-24mm f/3.5-4.5G ED. Looking at sample shots online I am very impressed with the quality and limited distortion.

My colleague in work loaned me his Sigma 10-20mm f/4-5.6 EX DC HSM to try out as it is cheaper by a couple hunred pound but I was a little dissapointed with the distortion it seemed to produce. I dont want to spend loads of time shopping out distortion.

Today now I am trying to choose and another contender has come in, the Tokina 11-16mm. Sample shots seem to be OK but I cant find any high res ones for comparison.

At the moment I am more than happy to settle for the Nikon but would really appreciate some advise or guidance
