Dave great post.......fair & balanced

Fran.......we know the G70 is on par in quality ....if they can only get the weight & size trimmed down is the only way I'd consider one again for my gigging needs..plastic doesn't necessarily mean lesser

Mickey I was a bit surprised at your review also not knowing what OS was in the pa800 it shows when it starts on screen....I hated the T2, design too wide & those sharp corners ripped thru one of my keyboard bags.
The vocalizer is sub par at best in quality. The Music Finder doesn't retain & save Transpose where Korg's is so far superior & editable. There's more but Im sick of mines better then yours scenarios its too early for that

I will admit the Pa800 NEEDS a heavy dose of tweak/edit initially regarding the master mixer, also I have found that the fantastic on-board speakers need to be shut off when playing live with a PA because they are TOO GOOD and real block out the mains in a tight situation.....if your mains are way up front then as a monitor the speakers would be fine or alone in a small gig situation "more then enough" .

Booby nice post I agree.
