Hmmm. I wonder when Yamaha will actually start the video feed and other things.
When are the new product announcements made? Is there a time when all the manufacterers give a talk and introduce the new products or do they just have their new instruments in their booths?
Regarding new Kawai DPs at NAMM 2012, I believe Kawai America will be exhibiting an updated console model and a new finish for an existing compact model.

We received advance information about new Roland DPs including some nice hi-res picts, looking forward to trying the new instruments. Including the new xxxxxxxx and the new xxxxxx. Oops, almost forgot, can't say anything until Thursday.

I would be a bit surprised if the P-155 was replaced so soon. I'd expect replacements for CP-33 and CP-300 sometime soon, though. Gettin' a little long in the tooth.
I'll tell you one piano ...The yamaha NU1 a upright Avant Grand ....

The CP33 and CP300 have effectively been replaced to a degree by the CP50 and CP5. Probably won't see many more professional stage pianos with built in speakers like the CP300 since the trend is lighter, more compact. The P155 ought to be updated or replaced.

Makes sense to me. No CP-300. Though I think they could replace the CP-33. Something lighter, simpler, cheaper than Cp-50.
Don't get me wrong. I'd like to see a replacement for the P155. It just doesn't seem that old to me, for a digital piano.

I would like them to combine the two. A P155 that also had the MIDI controller functions of the CP33 would be a nice board. I do like the idea of a piano with speakers that also functions as a decent controller, and Yamaha hasn't done that since the ridiculously heavy CP300. If this theoretical P155/CP33 hybrid could use the NW-Stage action, it would be just about perfect for me... except it would probably still weigh too much!

I'm just going by personal preference. I played a P155 at a friends house and I fell in love with it. I never actually owned one, every time I start saving for one, I get into financial troubles and end up starting from scratch again. I'm still using a Casio WK-3800, which makes me a sad panda.

Ouch, that's going to hurt us. ;(
Yeah its basically a N1 in a upright case with a full upright action ... its going to be cheaper then the N1.
