I am reposting a message from Frank L. Rosenthal from the ebay-Yamaha-Songs group.

"Looks like I may have to "eat my words". There will in fact be a Pro
Version of the PSR 9000. It will be a 76 key arranger keyboard housed
in machine similar to Yamaha's EX5 (with no speakers). The operating
system will be similar to the PSR 9000 with 48 MB of sampled voice
ROM. It should be available by December 2000."

Here is Yves first post from Belgium from another thread in this forum.

"Yamaha introduced his expanded version of the PSR-9000, with a lot more features for about the same price."

Here is Yves second post from another thread on this forum dated April 19,2000

"Sunday, I'm gonna hear Roland's new VA-7 keyboard here in Belgium, and the expanded version of the Yamaha PSR-9000. Don't ask me what the difference is between the expanded version and the "old" version. They only told me that there will be a lot more features for about the same price, and this as a reaction on Roland's new VA-7."

My fantasy is that armed agents from "Company Y" have abducted Yves to prevent him from spilling more beans.
