To answer your question. Yes. It is way too much. It should be priced slightly higher then the PSR450 or near the DGX305.
I'm very disapointed with Roland. About 3 years ago I bought a Roland EM20, still have it, because the voices were of a higher quality then Yamaha. That was at a lower price point, I am now comparing the mid-range keyboards, and they just can't compete. Roland has absolutely nothing to compare to the PSR3000. We'll soon see if the high end G70 can compete against the Tyros. It's very interesting to see Roland rushing the G70 to market. What do they know about the Tyros II? Are they trying to get some sales in before Yamaha comes out with a killer upgrade?
