Canon 400D vs NikonD80

Anybody could suggest which one is more suitable for astrophotography and why?
I am still not sure if Canon 400D CMOS sensor is really comparable in performance to Nkon D80 CCD.... CCD's are suposed to be better in that respect, because of lower noise and dark current...... or this is only what I think?

Also, I have heard of some mechanical issues associated with Rebels (mirror release mechanical parts made of plastic, that break sometimes). Is this still an issue?
