Yamaha emailed me all the new price lists with new and old gear with an effective date of 3/1/2009.
First, you need to know that prices on most current models will be going up! I was told that Yamaha Japan felt the need to go up before the end of the year but have postponed this until March, 2009.

the PSRS900 will be going up to $2299 retail and the MAP will be $1699.

The Tyros3's retail will be $5499.00 with a map of $3999.99

The PSRS700 retail will be going to $1399. but the MAP will remain the same at $999.99.

The YPG635 will be going up to $1299 Retail and the map will go up to $899.

There are two new models in the lower end.
The PSRE223 and the PSRE323. These will replace the current 213 and 313 models and the prices will remain the same as these older models.

In the Motif and MO series, only the prices are going up a bit but no new models are being introduced.

The Yamaha Stagepas series are all going up a few dollars but the Stagepas 150M keyboard amp is coming down $50 in MAP to $399.

The good news is that these price increases will not be in effect until March 1. So, if you are thinking of one of these products, you might want to buy before the price increases.
