Basically Yamaha incorporated their piano keyboard thinking into
this leather sketchpad and went “TADA! This is pretty cool!”

This is cool! Ever find yourself writing out your grocery list for the week and thought, “gee, I bet this grocery list would make a really cool song..”?

Yamaha has just introduced a notepad with an integrated keyboard. This is perfect for musicians and composers. It allows them to try out their tunes right then and there, with or without using the built-in headphone jack. (Pics)

If you don’t have headphones with you, you could really annoy people with this one, in say, a subway car or something. Then after you annoy your fellow man and call attention to your sweet new device, he can steal it and sell it to some other dude.

No word yet on availability.
