The LPK25 definatly looks better than the nanokey by korg. Also the backlit pads and added knobs might kill off the nanopad. Probably the start of a wave of copycat mini controllers.
I bought the Nano key not knowing the LPK25 was around. Going back to GC today to return it for the Akai. Key feel is very important, even when simply entering notes in Finale. The Korg feels like buttons on a qwerty keyboard, not a piano keyboard. Can't wait to get it!
