I think you're completely right.....I dont think I have ever payed "Advertised" price on any gear, and it is their way of making you think you are getting special treatment, and big discounts

Looks like the prices have been raised. Wonder if it has anything to do with the weak dollar or increased demand? I think that extra $300 makes a big difference. But I guess most wont care because if you want one you're going to pay. I know I would. I'm just not as eager now.

Has anyone preordered the TI keyboard? Since I got that job I was thinking of getting one to replace the gap of my beloved kB (and on the other hand there has to be someone to read the manuals for 99% of the TI users, hoho).

Quite obvious that I order it from a local store. How much the TI price differs from the original price tag of kC?

well not that obvious - a lot of people order from foreign suppliers...

prices are comparable (for release price).

in the past couple of days there has been a lot of complaining on the access mailing list about the fact that the ti only incorporates usb1.1 speed rather than highspeed usb2 transfer rates....

its a usb issue is valid point to make, but i do wonder just how many of these people that are complaining are people that cant afford to get one

I can get a good price around here. I'll just threaten to buy it from Germany and I'll get it for the real price without the air.

Err... Why to complain if there would be no difference? ?hih.

if highspeed usb was implemented there would be a considerable difference to the amount of individual channels that could be sent to your sequencer to allow for individual processing.

Another underhanded dig at the people who are making trance Juho. You should be ashamed of yourself!
