Maybe even the 701 is (the last great one, IMO--given that it managed to maintain a full-size keyboard). The 560's & etc. (perhaps the 600, the Sony, the Versa 5000 series, Digital's Hi-Note Ultra...) are in a class they're calling "Thin and Light". An apt description, I think--since it doesn't pretend to be "extra small", just thinner than usual and lighter too. That certainly describes the 560. ------- Randal J.
