It IS nice to have, but it is too expensive for beginner.  We're talking
around $795 at least for a keyboard with velocity sensitivity.  I would
say get a decent cheap one (like the CZ 101) and play with it.  It's
perfectly good.  In terms of developing keyboard techinque, nothing is
a substitute for a real piano anyway, and I'm sure there are plenty og
those at Princeton...
