I got some hands-on time at NAMM.. they are really fun. For those of you who remember the Casio SK-1, it works very much the same way except you can do so much more with the samples, like effects and turning them into percussion tracks.

I wish really wish Casio would make a new modern SK style sampler with 12 voice polyphony, mini keys, real MIDI in and out jacks, SD card storage and built in speakers. Rather than add sampling to a low end Rompler make sampling it's primary function. Allow it to be able to easily sample things that could then be played back polyphonically

 

Make a simple PC editor for it that turns WAV files into samples that could be played in the instrument. No need for USB just have the editor save to SD 

 

You also don't need to load it up with a bunch of rompler sounds either, just include an SD card with some cool samples loaded on it

 

Korg was very close to this with the Microsampler.
