Next will be the Nord C3, the Nord Stage 4, the Nord Lead A2, and the Nord Electro 7. Also probably some new drum thingie, but I have no idea what the current version there is, so I’d have to research before just incrementing whatever the current version is by one to satisfy your request.

I’m too darn lazy to do that right now,

Sorry but Nord are about to be acquired by Casio, and all future keyboards will be brown instead of red. I welcome this change.

They will also come with built-in speakers and sophisiticated auto-accompaniment features.

Nord Drum 4P and not to forget the Nord Lead 5, I would also bet on a Nord Stage 3 EX before the 4 and expect the Nord C3 to be a C3D :mrgreen:

Ok, my turn to be tongue in cheek:

Nord will be acquired by Roland, and release a new acoustic piano sound (npno) which works very well even in mono in a covers band setting, but sounds completely unimpressive when played solo. I would end up praising this new npno sound here and on Keyboard Corner, while most others will scratch their heads.

After acquiring Nord, Roland will introduce a refreshed set of their keyboard amps, which will be colored red but will otherwise be indistinguishable from their current models. Their marketing catch phrase will be "STILL worth it every time" (point of reference: the Roland ad video for their recently refreshed KC amps, here:
