hehehe Yeah! That's well said - P !
The big guys didn' jump in because it,s small but also because it's specificity is now out of 
their reach... Those big corporations haven't pull out decent product(xcept Korg) for 
creative musicians in year... too much aimed at mass market, they lost touch with the 
artists...
on that I hope you won't stop the M15, I need a second one ;P

over a thousand M15's in a year no problem.  But nothing sits around our finished goods 
area for more than a week as we make them only to complete sales orders.  These 300 are 
in the field.
