The whole idea of a "travel piano" escapes me. I've done a lot of traveling and if I think back to the places I've visited, I can't imagine bothering with a gadget like that. I guess if I had to go to a place where there was no culture, no nightlife, nothing to see or do, I might amuse myself in a hotel room for a short while by trying to play music on a plastic keyboard, with lousy action, and toy like sound. No, even in a place like that, I'd rather read a book than fiddle with a folding piano. To me, traveling is about seeing new things, meeting new people, making use of the time there to drink in the culture. Not plunking on a toy. If I really had the need to play some piano, I'd probably visit a music store, or maybe go to the lounge off hours, make friends with the staff, and play a real piano. I also think time away from practicing is a good thing; clears the head. Not to mention, 3.5 pounds doesn't sound like much, but that's a lot of luggage space that I'd reserve for things I'd actually use or wear or fill with souvenirs.
