Found some new pics at Roland's site. Not sure if others have seen these yet. They're Fantom-G screenshots for the ARX boards.

They look a bit different from what I remember. Not sure what's changed though.

Well, he may have to hold his breath for six months to a year, so yeah...

Historically, the rack version of Roland keyboards are announced one year later. Hopefully we'll see something next January, but it all depends on how well the Fantom-G keyboard sells.

Actually, I take that back. If Roland releases a Fantom-GR next NAMM, they're most likely already deep into designing it. Unless the G tanks (which I can't imagine happening), it'll be released.

The rack version is what I'm waiting for. My dad's replacing his Fantom-S88 with a G8 the day they're in stores. He'll be calling me a lot.

At least I'll have something to do when visiting home. :D
