Am I the only one who sees that the MediaStation is the "Hybrid" many of us have been asking for? A full fledged synth/workstation and arranger keyboard.

Weight issues are clearly different with synth players compared to arranger players, and that's fine. Who knows, maybe down the line Dom will produce a unit with a plastic body, and 76 non weigthed keys, but still keep in mind some of the unavoidable issues Dom had to meet with FCC regulations and so on.

Also keep in mind that Dom's english isn't the best. Dom is a really nice person. His post may come off a little harsh, but he doesn't intend to come off that way to people here. We who speak english well know how to "soften" a statement to avoid hurt feelings. Knowing and speaking to Dom I take his position as "we know the weight is an issue to some, but due to certain mandatory requirements some weight could not be avoided". That's how I saw it because I've chatted with Dom before, and he's a great guy, and I know he doesn't intend to come off that way. So I just right it off as a minor language barrier He "does" listen to users. His willingness to listen is obvious with the many changes that have come and are in the near future for the MediaStation.
