Reply to Akai midi controller vs Ableton new "Push" midi controller

Question for my DJTT compadres here. I'm actually a guy with no previous knowledge about music in general just a person who enjoy the way music is played at the clubs and that love to play around with music gear but I guess I got into this a bit late maybe since I got a house full of kids now that is. Well enough about me, the question is the fallowing: Are akai Midi controller like the "MPK61" basically the same as using a "Push" which is the new controller Ableton will be releasing. I like the idea of play with the "MPK" because I feel comfortable playing the Midi as a Piano (keyboard) or using the "Push" will provide more control to operating the Ableton software. Let me know what you believe. Thanks
