When will roland replace the G70 with the next flagship 76er

Does anybody remember when the Va76 came out and when was that replaced with the G70.This might give an indication when the next one comes out.

Daz, Roland never works that way.
That is a Yamaha hype thing..

I would think that roland is due to replace the G70 because the E80 is far better improved and better sounds.Am I correct.

The E80 is not that different to a G70 with the latest operating system.

All of the new E80 styles are available for G70 and some people would still prefer 76 keys and a few less sounds, rather than the E80's 61 keys and some newer sounds.

Roland are certain to have a 76 key flagship in the pipeline, I suppose it will only be released when the G70 stops selling as well as it does.

Daz, the E80 is not far better than the G70, It has different interest for different players, but are basically identical except for the keys , and speakers..etc.

I have been informed already that Roland is working on a new Arranger line that will incorporate an Wav/Mp3 player..similar to a new product Roland just released[Access or something like that]..a table top unit..It is common for Roland to design their top models over a period of several years..My guess we will hear hints of the new board early next year, but won't see it till late next year or after 09 Namm.
