Hi Squeak_D

I can't answer your questions, but I have a couple of comments. I think your knock on the gooseneck lamps is well taken. I wonder if this feature will be useful.

While in many ways it is true that the 9000Pro is a repackaged PSR-9000, I think many people are underestimating the significance of the small improvement that have been made. I think many people would find the increase of wave ROM from 32MB to 48 MB very significant, since it brings a much improved piano, drums, and vocal sounds. In addition, new styles are available that take advantage of these new sounds. Finally, the quality or playability of the keys themselves have been improved. None of this is revolutionary, but I think these improvements will make a big difference in one's enjoyment of the 9000 Pro.
