I'm no piano player, but if the they have done anything close to what Roland has done with electronic drums in the past 5 years it should be incredible.
Although the 19K price tag is still mighty steep.

It looks like my Baby Grand Piano. And I'll wager the one I have gives me more pleasure.
"The QRS Pianomation lets you insert a CD, play off the hard drive, hook up an MP3 and relax while the piano plays itself. It also features an orchestration option that lets you hear other instruments as well and allows the piano to play along as part of the band.
Speakers underneath have adjustable volume controls that capture the subtle nuances of Mozart to provide soft dinner music or will rock loud with the party. You can also use it to record and play back what you just played.
The QRS Pianomation can be fitted to most pianos and carries a five-year warranty on all parts and one-year warranty on labor. With the QRS Pianomation, all it takes to master music on your piano is to master the remote.
It's a modern player piano and the keys move..It's also my prized possession:)

I have an antique baby grand that is larger than that one. I had it rebuilt a few years back, and is wonderful. The new house has this large two story great room, and the piano sounds like heaven. Just wish I could play better. Started lessons when I was 40.

I still have this piano's distant ancestor, the breakthrough
Yamaha CP70, which I bought new in 1977. It was the standard "rock piano" at the bottom of everybody's keyboard stack for the next decade or so.

At 19 thousand they can afford to call it what they want :-)

Not my wife.. she is very creative.. she’ll find a piano for a hundred grand and make the argument buying this one will save me $20 grand.. she is making me money.. (that’s how she rolls)..
Of course, $80k.. heck no!
