1500, (unlike other lower models of previous yamaha has)-same no of simu EFX like 3k.+ mod wheel.also most of 3k stuff except less sweet/cool voices,no mega voices and no VH.

2100 is a 3k with a disk drive(ofcourse less voice ROM,mega voices)but + dsp and VH buttons onboard.

2100's piano and some voices sound better(1500 ac piano is pretty lame) but 1500's USB and SM is also great for a mid priced arranger.

but as you mentioned -you don't want to upgrade for a while-so 1500 could be better for you.

mind you- 2100 is made in year 2003(not year 2001 like psr 2000).just a year ahead of 3k.so used ones are not that old.
