Ok, keyboardistmatt will love this:

Makes playing out easy with no ivory to haul ;)

Of course, there is not a weighted version ;)

No-one will replace their normal keyboard with a virtual keyboard of course, therefor a weighted version is not really nessecary. I think it will come in handy when you're somewhere else (not at home) and you have a melody in your head and don't want to forget it, you can play it in your virtual piano to remind it. At home you can play it on your normal keyboard/piano.

Very cool thing, but it's very expensive I guess?

QuoteDID is promising an 88-key "grand piano" unit, and even some sort of weighted notes (we'll believe it when we see it)


Not YET
