DSLR camera-protection plan worth it?

I posted about this a few days ago about our pending camera purchase. We've got it down to a Nikon D5000 at Ritz Camera, it comes with a bag, two kit lenses, and instructional DVDs and free classes for $950+tax. Option two is a Canon T1i with one lens, no bag, no DVDs, and classes at B&H for $800. We both really like each camera, the rub is that we have friends with a Canon that are more than willing to go in together on upgraded lenses and flashes. Which way should we go?
The primary question is what about these protection/maintenance plans that each retailer are trying to sell us? Are they worth it? $430 for a three year plan at Ritz and $130 at B&H for three year plans that cover essentially the same things, like cleaning and damage. Are they worth it?
