Once in a way I access AMAZON or the E-BAY to check for availability and invariably they verify my IP address and quote the prices in CANADIAN DOLLARS. This time I saw the seller there and I could not find out where his office location was. (the one Who is offering the sale)
I was on my way out and I posted the response halfway through and ran out of the computer room for a few errands that needed my immediate attention and I knew some one will follow it up.
Thanks for the confirmation. But the prices I see are in US Dollars too. If it was in Canadian Dollars then it would have been a super buy.
Currently all of the PREVIA's are slowly getting out of style and the newer machines are way ahead in this game. The old machines will drop in prices drastically. More on it at a later time and date.

Won't that be in US $, if it's amazon.com, or am I missing something...and will they ship to Canada....
Dear Fido,
This machine is a very good one and I am sure will last a long time. I was looking at the details on POLYPHONY and this one is tops on that and a keen ear will accept that rate. Just make sure it has a good AMPLIFIER for the sound and/or sound out to an extension for external speakers, in case you want to add additional amplification. (I could down load their manual and find out, but I want you to do the same at the Costco outlet.)
I wish the FIDO family an excellent start and wish all the success in their endeavours.
God Bless.
FH.
A beautiful rendition on the Piano. KHNH NJOY

Currently with MIDI outlets they do provide 8-16 tracks for the recording. But that is not a big feature required for a Student starting out. So, the machine does work well and is ample enough for even experts.

Thanks a lot FH for your immensely valued advice and more than that your blessings !
I echo your feelings about this piano and my search is over ..lock , stock & barrel ....
If an opportunity permits , I would use my own receivers to amplify the sound .. got an Onkyo gathering dust ... 
( BTW the CDP 230 which is also a very good piano was selling online for 399/- @ Costco but though it is no longer available online , it is available @ Costco stores for 389/- .... but it has 2 action key board and a plastic pedal plus the polyphony is limited as well . I would have brought that had I not spotted this deal )
Thanks every one -- Have a good weekend !!!

Talents aplenty and with the current day of posting to the U-Tube through the Internet makes it a pleasure waiting for new postings to it. I am one of the Eager Beaver who looks into it and also play it a few times to enjoy the same before posting it to you.
This is one of a great compositions, where in I observed a great Guitar player and a fantastic Pianist who could supplement and with a superb vocalist to sing such a beautiful song and post it to us to enjoy, makes it worth while waiting for it.
Do I Know them? No. But surely want to, when some one feeds us the names etc., may be at a later time.

Njoy. The song below...

Takes me back to the MOGHUL Era. I wasn't there!
I will definitely take a look and encourage my daughter to do that as well ...
Thanks for your earlier advice/s FH ( and D2K+1 and SS and others) , the piano is serving the requirement wonderfully ... I am glad I asked it on CD .
