Subject:Re: XK1 keyboard?

I have a feeling that it might be cheaper to simply use the same keyboard
they are using on their other organs as opposed to designing and making a
new one even though the it might be cheaper to produce. Also, while they
certainly want to keep costs down, they would want their product to be as
competitive as possible with other similar products out there - I'm thinking
its big competition might be the Electro 61 or VK8 if they still make them.
