Diki,
Ok then,you do bring up an interesting point...so am I to understand that you concur with Squeak on the $1,000 price tag of the WK-7500?
I'm just really curious as to how many people out there,would honestly think that the WK-7500 would go for a grand and if so....how many of you would choose the Casio over a Yamaha MO6,or a Korg M50??

No, I don't think that a Casio, even with a few unique features, is going to make it to the $1000 point with only two variations, and as stripped down a feature list as it has.
But my point was solely about the price difference between arrangers and WS's. Comparative value between different arrangers is FAR more about perception and marketing than actual value. Does a Rolex keep noticeably better time than a Timex? Not enough to justify a $5000 difference, IMO!
If Casio want to move into the high end, or even MOTL, they are going to have to do a LOT more than most to overcome their 'toy' status, despite the odd (and generally ancient) success they had. This isn't going to do it, that's for sure!
