I can easily see Casio doing it. The MZ-2000 was proof enough of Casio taking a lead. The MZ has many featurs that rivaled the PRS-740.

Just look at their newer models they have out now. Compare the WK's with the YPG's. There are quite a few features the WK's have that the YPG's don't that are very useful such as voice voice editing, drawbars, way more indepth DSP's, Pitch and Mod wheels (of good quality too), and one HUGE FEATURE that's unheard of in the price range, and that's the ability to load in new samples. NO current Yamaha arranger under the Tyros2 has the ability to do that.

I think Casio has the ability to do it, but it would place the board in a much higher price range than the typical Casio. Folks were not ready for the MZ-2000. It was a Casio that cost over $1,000 with more "pro" features. The newbies didn't take to it because of all the features they weren't familiar with, and the Pro's laughed at it just because it was a Casio.

Time will tell.
