When the S-900 came out I spent three hours playing with the keyboard at a local GC. It has lots of incredible features, some design problems, particularly with the screen and location of the USB port. Overall, IMO, it's the best bang for the buck today--BAR NONE! I stuck with the PSR-3000s simply because the upgrade would have essentially been a downgrade to me. I like having the Smart Media Card, I can see the 3000s screen in marginal conditions and while seated, and I'm very happy with the sounds.

If Yamaha comes out with an S-series upgrade that has a MUCH better screen, hard drive option, 61-KEYS, weighs under 30 pounds and a card reader I'll buy a pair of them--even if they cost $2,000 each.
