Semilive, I felt exactly the same way before, but the fact is that: a PC laptop (I have one) with Windows/Mac software DOESN'T offer the IMPORTANT sheet music viewing, editing, & performance capabilities of the MusicPad Pro:
1) large 'portrait format' bright screen
2) 'hands-free' page turning
3) ability to create unlimited custom playlists
4) Song page markup & annotation
5) lightweight slim design with no keyboard to fold down & obstruct
It's only because of the now recently available music (including entire fakebooks) in digital format, that I've finally decided to take this plunge. I'll keep you posted AFTER I've finally had the chance to give this device a REAL test. I guess I'll be living on red beans and rice for a while now. Scott
