In many cases, it's hard to picture the difference between sensor measurements purely by checking specs. The visual underneath might provide you a far better sense of the sensor sizes in the Mini and T900.
All in all, the two cameras provide different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The Mini with its tinier sensor is going to make getting shallower DOF tougher and the Sony T900 will resolve greater detail with its extra 2MP. Higher resolution will also allow you to crop photographs more aggressively. The younger Mini provides a benefit in sensor innovation.
