Re: Piano stage vs electro
I've got a Casio PX-5s. It's a really nice board with a great keybed. Coming from a piano background, I prefer the feel of the PX over the the feel of any of Nord's SW or HP pianos. However, it doesn't feel as nice as the full hammer action of the Nord Pianos. Coming from a Nord though, the Casio sounds are crap by comparison but it's great if you want to control an electro with a cheap 88key board that has nice features for stage.

Re: Piano stage vs electro
Yes, I'd rather get a Casio PX-5S (or, for less money and the benefit of built in speakers, a Casio PX-350) AND an unweighted Nord Electro than any of the HP action Nords. You get a better piano action, plus a better organ action. It's still a pretty lightweight and cost effective rig.
