3) 76 note keyboard would be nice. (Hey, Casio and Roland can do it)
4) USB port.
5) Onboard amplifier/speakers.
6) Line output jacks.
7) Full size keys (Casio and Roland can do it)
8) Accepts soundfonts (good idea Cassp)
9) Yamaha sells their sweet voices soundfonts, a la carte for this new arranger.
10) No missing buttons.
Since I have to buy the voices, a la carte, I would be willing to pay $500US. $800US including the voices.
Another option is to supply the PC software with the arranger for sequencing and style creation. The software does not have to be in the arranger. Not everyone will like this feature.

I totally agree with everything that you stated!!! Although I could do with out number 5.
For me there is just one more very important thing or things.
SIZE WEIGHT PORTABILITY.
Nothing more than 30lbs. If they can not deliver that, then I will gladly like them to go the module way.
