Fran, we're moving from G70 to MicroA (or even PA50sd). I'm not expecting an A/B comparison, I'm expecting limitations; what'dya want for under $500. Even keyboards from 5-10 years ago have some knockout sounds and styles. The fact that you can load and edit styles and sounds is fantastic. I, and I assume many of those interested in the MicroA, am not looking for a TOTL arranger. We each have our wants and needs. I've owned a few Korg keyboards and pretty much know what kind of sounds and styles to expect. And I've played the MicroWorkstation and am knowledgeable of the mini keyboard. I'm not planning to go out with just the MicroA, a mic and an amp and play for a concert crowd, but I hope I could if I had to. Maybe it'll help me become a better organizer or editor of my music; maybe I'll play more; maybe you'll see it for sale before I leave for Florida - who knows. I'm thinking that I've thrown away more money on equipment that never worked. This will work - just fine.
