I dunno, the device you're describing sounds an awful lot like the 
one I'm currently pecking my message into....... LCD display, 
microphone built in, able to display staff notation and tuning data, 
weighs 4 pounds, stinky battery life.

Hmmmm, if this device catches on, music scores will be known as 
"screen plays"    8-)  ouch!

Also, for anyone interested, I found the Van Koevering homepage, 
http://www.vankoevering.com/
makers of the digital with the flat-screen display built into the 
music rack.

.......and now back to the incredibly serious piano discussion 
already in progress.......
