More often than not, it's tough to picture the contrast between sensor sizing only by going over specs. The graphic below should give you a far better sense of the sensor dimensions in the T200 and SD9.

All in all, both cameras feature different resolutions and different sensor sizing. The T200 with its tinier sensor is going to make achieving shallow depth of field more challenging and the FujiFilm T200 will offer greater detail using its extra 11MP. Greater resolution will make it easier to crop images way more aggressively. The fresher T200 should have an advantage in sensor innovation.
