THANKS, guys. I've pretty much followed your advice already. I am going to do a little more to help him, but as far as which keyboard he chooses, that will definitely be up to him. He got such a good deal on the 600 he could probably make money on it instead of switching for another board, but I'm not telling him that - yet. He's basically computer illiterate and that's a big minus in his learning curve. I'm going to copy the style lists from the 600 and 700 and see if I can locate some styles he might recognize. I really think he needs to spend more time, but my choice for him would be the 700; he choose the 600 because of the great deal (and my OK).
DONNY, I'm far from disappointed with the PA1000. In, fact it may well overtake the G70 as my favorite all time arranger. It sounds fantastic and the features just keep on giving. The audience reactions have been surprisingly enthusiastic; I guess they could hear the improvement too. Right now I'm busy creating my own Songbook, as you suggested.
