its over indulgence from my point of view. Listen to the roland RD700GX or Rolands other upright or digital pianos.If you cant find a great piano there then you wont find one in the Vpiano ! They have excellent piano sounds , key feel etc plus excellent additional sounds .Editing and modifying the tonality is every bit as intuitive as the V piano. The editing functions on the Vpiano look impressive simply because of the new application of physical modelling but all that means is that you can tweak a piano so it no longer sounds like a piano !!! The only reason peol buy specific stage piano instruments is because it sounds like the real thing, not some weird piano that has never been invented yet.....This is just great marketing of an old technology used in new way (physical modelling ). But i am sure someone will buy it. But i agree with Ian , this has to be a very niche market.
