Angelo,

The 3000 is a big step up from the 2000, however, as stated, you will miss some of the buttons.

As for storage, ease of use, weight, sounds, styles, I sincerely believe that it is right up there with the Tyros, with the added benefit of having speakers and lightning fast USB and Smart Media access to styles, midi files and registrations.

To me, it's still unconcievable that a keyboard with all these features can cost so little. Thanks for another winner Yamaha.

Gary
