Sounds like you want a Tyros2 at a price which is $500 more than an S900.

Won't happen. Yamaha would not sell any Tyros2...they certainly don't want that to happen.

The name of the game with ALL arranger companies is marketing and profit...hasn't it occurred to you that Yamaha has worked all this out?

Wait long enough and you will be able to buy a second hand Tyros2 for a good price...OR save your pennies and buy a Tyros3...then again...it might have rubber buttons.
