Just to let you know - I played both keyboards today and thought that although the Yam PSR3000 is a nice instrument it sounds a little flat. Tried them both through headphones and speakers - the Technics just came accross as a much richer sound. The styles are well put together and it's nice to see Favorates etc still there (had to look hard at first to find them). I tried my SD card out of my Ipaq but it didn't find any files. Able to look at the "browser" though and it looks okay.

The screen is way better than the Yam and the build quality far superior. Yamaha still make keyboards that cost �1000 but look like their �100 siblings.

All in all I agree with you the Technics is the superior keyboard and the one for me.

Thanks for all your info. It made me get out and do a comparison rather than just going by the glossy sales blurb.
