Thinking about Genos, I recall what Steve Jobs was saying about touchscreens.

He was saying that switching to touchscreens would mean a complete redesigning of operation system.

I guess this is the way how Genos appeared. You just can’t give a touchscreen to Tyros and stop there. And if you have to rethink all menus and buttons, you may present it as a new keyboard altogether.

We know that before Genos, Yamaha introduced a touchscreen used in Clavinova.

It’s true that Korg had used touchscreens even before we started to live in a touchscreen reality.

The same story goes for a Motif line. A touchscreen turned it into Montage and now we have MODX, which some people call “the best offer”.

Given that a touchscreen is a “must” in the "iPhone’s world", we may speculate about how long a PSR line will resist the pressure. Will it also get a new name? Or will it be like PSR-S1000, PSR-S2000?

We’ll see.
