I wouldn't be without mine. I purchased almost 2 years ago at the higher price. As Scott mentioned Frankieve sells that at good price. I depend on lead sheets so for me it works well. After some discussions about using a laptop instead of the MPP,I see that's a very viable option. That could have done the job, but not as well as the MPP does for me. Nevertheless if you have a laptop you may want to experiment with it before buying the MPP.
