LindaFus is exactly right! She hit the nail on the head with her last paragraph where she mentioned "specification subject to change" This is where Yamaha covers their tails.... I also agree with Linda where she mentions that Yamaha may not have really anticipated professionals buying the PSR2000. I think this is the case with this keyboard. Look at the PSR-9000 and 9000 Pro, both of these keyboards are upgradable via floppy. Yamaha clearly advertises these boards as "professional" arrangers. They in no way refer to the PSR-2000 as a professional arranger.. Even though it does have professional features... I think that's why the PSR-2000's flash upgrade was eventually dropped by Yamaha. It's a marketing thing. Imagine if they adverstised the PSR-2000 as a professional arranger... For example saying it's a lighter version of the PSR-9000 and 9000 pro for half the price minus a few features. This would most likely take sales away from the VERY expensive PSR-9000 and 9000 Pro. We musicians always are looking to save money aren't we? If Yamaha advertised the PSR-2000 in this way the sales would go up and they would offer the flash upgrade for it.. Yamaha's funny in a way. Look outside the arranger department. They have a HUGE support line for their professional synths.. Take their new Motif for example.... Anyone ever see the support site for it? It's amazing! Yamaha Techs actually read and reply to the posts there. I don't think Yamaha really sees the need to invest such support for the "what they call lower end arragners, and non professional arrangers..." The only arrangers they really give good support for is the PSR9000 and 9000 Pro.. Hopefully they will change this in the future and come to realize that MANY professionals are using their lower end non professional keyboards every day. People like Uncle Dave are a good example...
