Yamaha P Series Contemporary Piano's

Does anyone use One? right now i am particularly looking at the P90 and the New P140S, i am currently awaiting pricing from my local store, so i tried checking the internet, i found sites (Musiciansfriend.com, etc.) listing the MSRP for the P140S @ $1499.00 but selling them @ $1199.99 and $1295.00 for the P90 and selling them @ $999

I also found the New P70 with an MSRP €799 and selling for €599 but im guessing this would pale by comparison to the others considering there price

Would they all have the exact same keyboard (GH Graded Keys) but with different sounds and such?

After a quick look at yamahas website it looks like the p90 just has better quality sounds, a sequencer for recording stuff and easier controls. I dont really know much about Yamahas stage pianos though so maybe a better idea then just comparing specs would be go to your local music dealer and play both of them to see which you like! Waltons and Musicmaker have large selections of keyboards you can play with. They do appear to have the very same graded hammer keyboard. Ive played one or two of the Clavinovas and thought the piano sound was lovely but always best to play before you buy.

I was looking at the website myself and the P140 has the better Quality

Although the P90 would have more voices and such as its designed for the gigging musician where as the P140 would seem to be designed more towards Piano Students and such
