Hi sozo
Why not take a weekend trip to Oslo and plan on playing all the different keyboards? You could stay in an inexpensive hotel, and the trip would not cost too much - surely less than $1000! Then you could check out all the keyboards available. This really is a must.

Hi Jupiter5
I wish we had dealers in the US that would sell at these more reasonable prices that you describe in the UK. Ok....I realize I'm opening myself up for all the slams from the US dealers. But really, the prices are so high - especially for Technics. My local dealer wants $5500. Dream on!
