- Hi, my name's Mark Roaquin, and I'm a New York City High school student.

- Very true... yet I have an i4. Naturally, I love it. The main reason I have
- it and not, say, a trinity Pro X (one can dream) is because of the
- WONDERFUL internal speakers. They may not be super-duper, but they
- reproduce every frequency nicely. I'm only 16, so the only way I can
- transport my keyboard to a gig with my band is 1) through the subway (no
- way) or 2) hitch a ride with a friend or my parents. The i3 would require
- an amp (which I have), but it's way too heavy to carry around all the time.
- The i2 is simply ridiculous for travelling. 88 keys?!
-
- So I recommend the i4S for all travelling musicians. It has its flaws, but
- it is transportable. It is much more powerful than the i5, which looks a
- little too much like a $450 Casio. If you're going to buy Korg, make it
- look like one. The very name Korg signifies a professional keyboard.

- Thanks for accepting my input!!
