the wait is now over

Yes I heard from my guy at Nova their shipment is enroute and they should be shipping early next week (hopefully my sweetwater rep doesn't see this) ;p

In stock at PMT Southend on sea UK - just the one though.

It does sound very very good big and fat, nice and expressive- build excellent - keyboard action great. Easy to navigate and edit.
The presets are much better programmed than the G and its easy to layer things up and get creative quickly - made me come up with several ideas in a few minutes of trying, so that's a good sign.

I am tempted although I am a workstation guy at heart. Haven't heard the Kronos yet so will maybe wait until that. But yes, nice board.
