Yes it's difficult sometimes the further you move up the tree! As my opinion would without doubt be biased, I will not tell you which one I think you should choose. Instead I recommend that you look around the internet to find out what "support" and user sharing forums/groups you can find on your chosen keyboard. Also, you really ought to try all these models "in the flesh" before you choose, find which suits your playing techniques better and whether you find a particular model easier to navigate. Most of all, decide what sound you want from the keyboard, DONT go by the demos, you need to sit at the keyboard and try the sounds, see if they are what you need for your music. Do you need styles? If so, can you find other styles should you need them. How about durability? Do you need something capable of taking a knocking or two, something light? What about vocals? Would a harmoniser be handy?
Remember that you could always choose a lower cost keyboard e.g. the 2000 and midi it up to a very nice sound module such as the new roland s90 canvas (edirol).
