Disklavier

Phil,
I was also disappointed that the update only added support for the iPhone. I agree about all of the basic issues that need to be fixed. Isn't it pathetic that the E3 Disklavier has support for all of the voices when it is supopsed to have "less" features than the normal Disklavier.
