----------------------- Chic Corea was on the Letterman show recently and played a number with the band. He had a small portable keyboard which didn't sound half bad. It had a breath control device on it also. Chic said it was a Yamaha, but didn't say what the model# was. Anybody have any more information about this keyboard? Or any other portable keyboards for that matter. (I'm in the market for one at the moment). Peter Meng -----------------------

It retails for under $200 in Canada (breath controller optional at extra cost). It runs on batteries, and there is also a mixer and headphone amp that match available. All you need to add is a monkey and you're all set. -- A memo from the desk of : Larry W.
