A piano is a piano is a piano, right? Wrong! Yamaha ups the ante with their new Disklavier Piano that not only plays tunes the traditional way, it also features some pretty up-to-date specifications such as Wi-Fi connectivity that enables you to download MIDI files onto it directly without having to carry around a USB flash drive (or 3.5" floppy back in the old days), enabling you to play tunes, record performances with vocals as well as other instruments simultaneously. There will be a built-in hard drive to store these recorded files which can be transferred to a PC later on via USB. Best of all is the fact that you can stream tunes directly from the Internet, having the piano play by itself. I wonder how much something like this will cost.
