Disklavier

PianoBench,

I have been following the anticipated release of the PianoSmart 
technology (firmware upgrade for Mark III models) quite closely and find 
it an exciting development that will add greatly to the capabilities of 
my DC3A.  It is my understanding based on conversations with my local 
Yamaha dealer (who first told me about PianoSmart when he returned from 
the NAMM show) that Yamaha will make recorded (on floppy disk) piano 
arrangements for a variety of commercially available CD's.  It would be 
nice to know in advance of the release of the PianoSmart floppy disk 
software what some of these CD's will be so that I might purchase the 
CD's. .  Are you aware of any list that Yamaha has made available of 
commercial CD's for which Yamaha will supply the piano arrangements as 
floppy disks?

A second question is based on the fact that that Yamaha recently 
released a firmware upgrade for the Mark III disklavier.  Do you know 
what features this firmware upgrade contained or addressed? 
 Specifically do you know whether this firmware (dated March 12, 2002) 
contains the necessary upgrade to enable PianoSmart or will another 
firmware upgrade be necessary to enable PianoSmart?

Thank you in advance.

Tom
