The keys do feel like the DGX525 and DGX225 model keyboards. I'm not a piano player, but graded has to do with how hard you need to play the keys on the lower end of the keyboard to make the sound of the piano be loud compared to having to play the keys on the upper range, which requires less strength to have these keys play loud. This has to do with the length and number of strings on a real grand piano. On a real piano, the hammer strikes the strings and therefore this natural grading effect occurs and on a digital piano, this effect is manufactured into the action of the keys.

It's very cool that even "if" they're similiar to the keys of the DGX series--this new model has "graded action" keys. That feature itself--even though on a non-weighted model--is usually found on more expensive units.

I'm blown away that this unit is 76 graded piano style keys and runs on AA batteries Still don't like that Yammie charges you an extra bone or two just to plug the bloody thing in though... Oh well for $299 it's still a great deal, and you could find an adapter elsewhere to fit (and) probably for less than the Yamaha power supply...

Boy this summer my set up will be nice. It will consist of my current Roland RS-70, soon to be added Roland Fantom X6 (yeah baby!), either the PSR-S700 or the 900 (still have to decide on which one), and the money left over will be used to buy the Yamaha NP-30.

If this set up doesn't keep me busy for a while my wife will surely see to it that I "sleep with the fishes"....

George... Put me down for one (PSRS900)... Just email me when you got one and I'm in...

George, would it be possible to buy the middle eastern styles for the T2?

Thanks, Chony.

George,
Any new word on when? Or will you not know when...until they actually arrive?

BumP again

Friday, Yamaha told me sometime in July.
That's the best I can do.

Thank you George.
They say good things come to those who wait.
I guess we wait,
