If you have this "expensive Hobby", like me, and you can afford having those two TOTL amazing arrangers just buy the Korg Pa800/Pa2x!!. The Korg sound will add a different touch to your music. I have a Pa500 and I am still amazed by its sounds and styles at least for the "home" use I give it. Or you could also buy a Pa500/588 and a good computer for playing Vsti (something I've been doing with the Mediastation) and I can assure you'll never get bored of the sounds you hear. In this way you would get the Korg styles + an unlimited instrumental soundsource for the melody part(imagine adding Garritan Orchestra sounds for example). If you don't make complex arrangements using the computer and you play at home you can use it live mostly without problems.
Just a different idea. Good luck.

So Victor, what you're saying is get the 588 piano/arranger and use it to play VST sounds. I am a total newbie in playing from a computer. I have a nice laptop, but never considered using software-based voices. What do I need to do that? What software and how much does it cost? This is all new territory for me.
