For various reasons, I’m staying somewhere right now where I don’t have Internet access, barring the occasional access to some neighbor’s wifi.

Korg Nano Controllers: October?
This site has more news on the Korg Nano music controllers I mentioned a couple of days ago. Apparently they’re scheduled for October 2008.
