For sequencing, the two-line lcd interface is idiotic, compared to ANY modern software package.  I mean, even Garage Band beats it.  In Garage Band, you can even work with standard music notation!

(Yes, I know Garage Band is severely, intentionally limited in its export facilities.)

It reminds me of an argument we had on John Shirley's bbs over writing a novel on a cell phone.  Sure, it's possible, but it's an exercise in masochism.
