Scott,
That's not exactly what I said. Your statement is true of many of the styles. I was trying to emphasize that, just the use of MegaVoices, and other new voices, in the styles would make them sound significantly different. In order to get the MegaVoices into the styles at the higher resolution, the styles did have to be resequenced - ALL of them. While many of them will sound familiar, none of them will be exactly the same. And since Tyros has 300 styles, many of them are new/different from what you've seen in recent PSR/CVP models. Tyros styles that are based on an existing style will, in some cases, sound quite different, and in other cases, sound very familiar. Mostly the Pro styles or Session styles will sound new and different, but in some cases, a basic style too.
Your point about importing them into a PSR2000 or other keyboard having a lesser effect is quite right, but of course there are about a hundred new styles. Some of them will be made available for purchase in the not too distant future.
I hope that clears things up somewhat.
Steve Deming
