Actually, I hadn't heard of it till this thread was started, and I usually get a bit of notice, especially when it's a product I'll be working with, alongside the regular arrangers.
I'm rather surprised at the 32 note poly as well...once you start layering sounds, that sometimes can be a problem.
If it's anything like the PSR-E423/E423, it will be a pretty cool instrument...they sound very good, especially for the money, and the poly was 32 and didn't seem to affect playability.
My girlfriend has an NP-30, and the 32 note poly hasn't been a problem, and she is an experienced player.
I hope we see and hear some demos soon.
