Only big difference between the 08s and 09s is suspension. 08s came with 45mm Marzocchi forks, 09s have 48mm Sachs forks. 08s have either an Ohlins or Sachs shock, 09s have a Sachs shock. Both are good bikes, personally I prefer the Sachs suspension on the 09s over anything else. That said, if it's a good deal on the 08, go for it then send the suspension to Les at LTR for a revalve.
