I find the navigation pretty painless, but I do prefer the larger view that the PC gives me. I am almost always looking for the "next tune" during the current tune, so searching is second nature to me. I can't plan more than one song ahead - my mind changes too quickly.

If I need alot of MP3 files, I still prefer the laptop too, but for a one or two hour job, I just don't need that extra piece to deal with the Korg has a great MP3 player and it seamlessly integrates with the styles and sequences in the songbook.

During MP3 playback, you have the time running in the window, the fader to blend into the next song .. I just love it.
