I couldn't agree with you more Beakybird! You made some very good points. I will say this though. I tried the PSR-3000 and it wasn't for me. Two things I absolutely hate about the current PSR models is 1: The cheap "painted plastic buttons" 2: The cheap pitch and mod wheel they've been using for YEARS and refuse to change.

Looking at the S900 it makes me wonder if they went back to the rubber buttons. Plus I see they're NOT painted either. I do however see they still use a the poor pitch and mod wheels. I never thought I'd see the day that a Casio would have a better set of wheels than the upper mid range arrangers from Yamaha.
