Donny, As you’ve stated before...we’ll have to wait and see when it gets in the hands of US users. I personally believe that Yamaha could ill afford to release a new psr product that didn’t set itself apart from the psr’s of the past. Just from the screen shots...the operating system seems to be a major upgrade.
I’m hopeful,
JM That could be correct, ....and I'm sure Yamaha already has R&D designs ready to go or in progress for SX900,901,902,903, & Genos 2,3,4,5 it is inevitable and the way they have always led buyers on with incremental feature upgrades... this new wave will be no different in the coming years...choose wisely.

Not sure why Yammie floods them into the Eastern countries first... has anyone seen a chart depicting # of arranger users per country?
No argument that the flood of (non-English) demos sometimes adds confusion and forces us to wait for more revealing information/demos.
For me, the addition of the touch screen, and 3rd voice in right hand are a huge plus. May not have the SA2 voices, but being able to combine 3 voices versus 2 on the current PSRs would be great. The chord looper is new and not available on the Genos. Also, the assignable buttons (6) of them may be of great utility (though haven't seen too much on them yet). Also not sure (yet) regarding the touted improvements in sound dispersion from the speakers... change in the pitch wheels seems to facilitate a little better control of inflection.
Considering the added upgrades and the price difference between the SX900 and Genos, for an S970 user, the new board would be a great "trade up".
Now, if I can just get the "Deadbeat bidder" who "bought" my S970 to pay. Looks like I'm going to have to relist it now....
I, too, am hopeful!

I, too, am hopeful! and most will always have too play in stereo with two external speakers outside the home /Nh, gigs, etc,.. to achieve a quality sound as heard in MH demos...otherwise many sonic attributes will be lost.
