Sure , it is a great buy as far as A/KB`s are concerned , however it is things like the display , key-bed , buttons wheels and a painted shell , that the consumer really pays for in the end.

Just my opinion, 
Gary Let's place this into perspective... if you are going to treat your instruments roughly, this likely isn't the one for you... albeit, if you are looking for a great transportable unit to take with you on your solo arranger gigs, this is a awesome piece.
Sure, it's not perfect, but neither are the PA-800, G-70, E-80, E-60 and Tyros2...and I have a feeling there will be issues with the new PA2XPro.
Main thing is...I'm playin' and havin' fun...can't beat that.

How about you Gary?
