they look cool, but from the pic it does look like the keys
will be like tiny casio keyboard keys that no one with real
MENS fingers could play. the pads look cool though.

i can cope with small keys, i'm not a wuss. actually that
reminds me i bought a keyboard for £2 from hyper value. i
sat on a wall playing tunes on it when a tramp came along
and asked for a go. he could play ok, and then after a while
he was trying to crack the code to get it to play music.

Girly hands ;)

I thought they only had hyper value in wales?

yes ive been wanting one for a while! i like the smaller one
( the one pictured) not the larger, 49 key one.
i think its perfect, i like small keys too.
how much did you pay?
cheapest is like sort of 250usd ive come accrross, which is
like as new used on ebay...
hey one thing- all my machines are win2k, considering this
is just basically midi via a usb interface, i imagine it
should work fine on win2000, providing the drivers will
install, but i always see XP as a requirement, could i
follow up with you at some point when youve recieved it...
because i have no intrest in moving up to xp

The MicroKorg was designed for Jeremy Beadle to play live
with his right hand.

that would be the very same hand he uses to wank with.
"makes it look bigger"he says.

I don't normally like mini-keys, but if you give me a large
enough keyboard, I'd consider it just because I can stretch
my fingers farther to play more complex chords. I'd consider
the 49-key version. Looks pretty nice.

Whilst I don't really like them (and I'm very, very bad at
keyboard anyway) 3/4 size keyboards are good for the
following:

Training yourself to hit keys precisely, so when you play on
a full size keyboard, it's much much easier.

Tracks that require you to play chords with one hand and
then 2 notes that are more than one octave apart using the
other. This way even people with a tiny span can do it.

well i've been playing about with this all afternoon and its
bloody brilliant. everything about it is just, great. i'd
really recommend one to anyone who needs a midi controller.
only slight nag is the mini keys, but there is a fullsize
model available too.

there you go taff;

Really? That's unlike Korg, their build quality is usually
pretty damn good....
