Worst workstation keyboard I ever bought, it only has the fgabcde keys, which made it rather hard to type work emails.

I see keyboard and now, thanks to Target, I think denim

So when it says piano style keys, is that just saying they're the same size and color, or are we talking weighted? Wormburnr has already mourned that they're not, but I didn't see anything that said one way or the other.

Is the only difference between the 200 and 210 being the screen backlight color?

Here's a link to the comments on this from the last woot-off:

That might answer some questions. Seems a lot of people were happy to have paid twice this much for it.

Got one during the last woot off and it supplements my piano lessons beautifully.

my fiance's been wanting a piano for ages, she's never had one so i believe this will be a perfect start for her, thanks!

I bought this last time and absolutely love it. Well... I bought it for my 5 year old, but I ended up putting it in my office. Other than not being weighted (which for this price is not gonna happen), it's a silly great deal.

Half tempted to buy another... hmmm.

Does anyone know if it has a damper pedal jack?

Got one from the last sale here. Some things I didn't realize when I purchased it:

Has USB jack that uses standard USB<-->midi protocol - this means that you can plug it into your iPad with the camera connection kit and use all those new nifty midi apps people are coming out with - piano tutors, sequencers, recorders, etc. Not to mention just plugging it into your computer as a normal midi device. But the iPad apps were a surprise to me - it's very cool.

Can run off batteries.

The whole thing is pretty light, but bulky. There aren't any built in grips of any sort.

There are a TON of features. It has many pieces of music built in, and a few teaching modes for dozens of pieces of common music.

It has split keyboard - so you can assign the right hand to one use (say piano), and the left to another use (for instance chords or drums).

Doesn't come with pedal, but one can be had from amazon for under $30. Stands and benches are also cheap.

@tabbyfoo: From the manual linked in product description, there is a single pedal jack (no pedal included).
According to PDF page E-17 (of the 210 manual anyway)
This single pedal defaults to "Sustain", but is configurable to also control Sostenuto, Soft or start/stop Rhythm.
I suspect that "Soft" is your requested "damper pedal", though you must choose a single function, as there can be only one (pedal function).

This is a step-down from the model I have, which I bought for like 350 or so bucks a couple years ago. I was genuinely impressed by the tone bank of this thing. Especially the organ tones. The drum loops are pretty helpful(and varied) and prove to be fun for playing by yourself. Really pleased with Casio.

I'm fascinated with the sequencer built in, but since I cut my sequencing teeth on and Ensoniq EPS, I doubt I'd be happy. But it's an impressive addition to a keyboard that's under a hundred bucks, AND some basic sampling function to boot.

@chefraz: ^ post not consistent with spell check.

Bought this for myself and my kids, great deal, nice keyboard for the money.

I have a fairly nice Casio digital piano, but my son has a habit of eating snacks (like potato chips and cookies) over it. After having to wipe chocolate and boxed juice off the keys I decided it was too nice a piano for him to be playing around with at his age.

I'm buying one of these instead so that he can be more like his his 5 year old self (actually he was 4 years old when I exiled him from the other piano, but I still get heebie jeebies remembering vacuuming up corn chips from between the keys so it will be a while before he gets to use that one again).

@txag98: Sorry, you'll need a keytar for that.

Is it really that difficult to include the extra 12 keys?

Uh-oh, no MIDI connections?

Then it's really just a toy.

@apbarry: to be fair, i think @anyboatyourow is referring to a dedicated MIDI-OUT port, which is not a feature for these keyboards.

as stated, though, the description does mention exchanging MIDI data with a computer via the USB port.

@sahmiam: you can solder some keytar strap locks to it.
Does woot have any skinny ties with piano keys on them that I can wear with my collarless chams shirt?

Did anyone figure out what the differences between two models are?

@chezteladog
I went over the manuals and one @grosof stated this as well the only difference is the wk-210 has the voice pad feature, which allows you to play sampled sounds.

Also in the process of selecting the wk-210 model woot give me this statement

"Your first Casio 76-Key Keyboard, 570 Tones, 180 Rhythms, 152 Songs, USB, Aux-in, Step Up Lessons selection is invalid (unavailable in WK-210 with Blue Display)."

so the WK-210 does not come with Step Up Lessons. since I will be using http://synthesiagame.com/ to learn to play I chose the WK-210, although I doubt I will ever use the voice pad feature but more likely then the Step Up Lessons

Can anyone confirm if the 210 does not have the Step-Up feature? I too want the 210 over the 200 for looks, but since I'm a beginner I may want this feature.

EDIT: I THINK IT MEANS THEYRE OUT OF THE WK-210 (BLUE) MODEL, NOT THAT IT DOES NOT HAVE THE FEATURE...

@jnevil - I didn't get an email and can't find any tracking information using my order number. I also haven't been able to log into my account to see my orders. I keep getting error messages. Any idea what's wrong?
