NEWLY RELEASED SONY ERICSSON XPERIA PLAY NO MATCH FOR PSP NGP!?

There has been much attention and fanfare surrounding the release of the new Sony Ericsson phone which can perhaps be considered as a warm-up to Sony's PSP NGP later in the year. 
According to reports, the new Sony Ericsson XPERIA PLAY phone, which is also known as the "PSP Phone", cannot be compared to the "next-gen" PSP NGP.

Clearly the XPERIA PLAY has been touted for the casual game player, which is perhaps why no comparison can be drawn with the NGP as this can be considered as a stand-alone console-media device akin to a PS3 rather than the PSP.
Therefore, it is more likely that this phone will compete with the imperious iPhone and to some extent the emerging Android powerhouses even though it will be powered by Android's Gingerbread OS.
Do Sony then have to be quite apprehensive about entering this highly competitive market?
Is the XPERIA PLAY a gimmick or is it a real contender? How will it affect the sales of the current PSP models?
