Chris just brought this to my attention....maybe this is the model he meant.
EK50 Might now get some attention, as a piano !!

Sorry Hans .... I missed that

I will watch this model now with interest, given it is IDENTICAL to EK50 OS which gets next to no feedback as an instrument.

Its a combination of a B2 and EK50 but without 2 important features, the joystick from the ek50 and the usb audio from the BK2. What the heck Korg? How much extra cost these features? Almost nothing.

I believe it does have the USB audio.

I think XE20 is a great idea from KORG. It combines an 11.5kg stage piano with 2 great piano sounds and arranger features! I am thinking of buying one.

Don't dismiss Yamaha DGX-670.

I might prefer many of the Yamaha's sounds, but for use that might also include some solo or small ensemble gigs, I'd be inclined toward the Korg for its lighter travel weight, probably louder speakers, and for the times even those speakers are insufficient, 1/4" line outputs.
