Is it dope or are these guys on dope lol. Is the MPC back?

Man, I hope this is a good as it looks! (excluding the video's seriously dated sound track duh). You'd think Akai would have done better than this.
I've been waiting years for something to replace my MPC 60. The Renaissance is slated to be released early summer 2012. I'm told it will be priced around $1299.00 USD. Any new or updates, or just wanting to chat about it, please do!

Here it is:
