Hi Squeak,
personally I like the design of the KN7000 especially for home use. It tucks away nicely in the corner of the living room without being the centre of focus. It's the only one of my 3 keyboards that has been allowed to be in the main living room, the others are tucked away in a spare bedroom.The design certainly wasn't the reason I bought it, it was the nifty little SD card and it's Audio capabilities that won me.

best wishes
Rikki

I am also waiting for PA-X, I currently have the PA80 and love it's sound.

Hmmm ... is it time to sell the PA80?? BTW, when is PA-X expected to ship, any idea?
