Hi Ian,
I must admit I was finding it hard to decide between the PSRs900 & the PA800.
It was the pads & onboard style & pad editing functions that won me over in the end. I'm a style editing/creating nut ( & now pads have been added to the equation).

The problems that some of the members were having with the s900's didn't influence my desicion in the end. I was fortunate enough to be able to afford to keep my psr1500. Next time hubby's feeling in a super generous again, the s900 sounds like a great upgrade for the psr1500. haahaa

I enjoy all 3 of my keyboards ( & my OMB softsynth arranger ) each has strong points & weaknesses for me.
Haven't found a weakness yet with the PA800.

best wishes
Rikki
