I know several people who are using them, and the portability is part of the reason. They are pretty user friendly, but will take some reading to get into it deeply. If you have some good editing program's on your PC it make's it a lot easier to set up good loop's and sample's for use on the unit. All said, You could take a look at Ensoniq ASR X Pro who have joined the E-mu stable of fine synth's and sampler's. www.emu.com/products/asrxpro/asrxpro.html
Or Korg www.korg.com/ has a littel unit called the ES-1, not quite up to the MPC or the ASR, but still a nice little user friendly unit.
