His complaints about shotty construction of the S-700 without a doubt apply to the S-900. They're the same bloody shell, and components (minus a few hardware items). However, they're the same keyboard in terms of construction. So his complaints about the S-700 clearly apply..., plus he has the S-900 too and had issues with it (OS related that is).

This isn't something new. Members have been complaining about poor build quality of the PSR line for years now.

Yamaha makes some great sounding keyboards. The PSR line S-700/900 have good sounds and many useful features. The problem is Yamaha has been stingy on the build quality of the PSR line. I can't even count how many times this issue has come up on the Zone about button contacts failing, key contacts failing, ect.
