But I'm weird and love tiny things with batteries which appear reminiscent of gameboys.
exactly why i love my mini
Just came across a Korg KP Quad for $175. I may end up getting that for the time being.
If you can find a working Quad for $175, take it. I doubt it'll stay at that price, they normally go up. I'd definitely get a Quad for that price.
*looks over eBay*
holy shit there's a bunch of them for that price! I might as well get one of those next too.
miniKP eats fuckin batteries. Just a heads up.
Yeah they've been really cheap on ebay lately. And I have tons of rechargeable batteries at my disposal so I should be good (I hope)!
EDIT: and the one I wanted to get of course went for only $140... I'm so mad I just got paid tonight and not last week.

if this means anything, my last two albums have basically been odes to the 10th delay effect on the kp3 -- I think it was the multitap delay?
samples help a lot too. being able to drop 4 Carl Sagans at the same time is a lot of fun to do in a live show
I haven't messed with the Quad, but I wish I could.
I don't know if it samples like the KP3 does (which is real handy for chip/electronic music) but having 4 effects at once would kick ass, which is something I lament about the KP3.
The fact that the KP3 samples might be a deciding factor for you also, or maybe not. and I can't recall the maximum sample time of the KP3 off the top of my head either though.
I do enjoy the look and the simplicity of the mini KP though, sometimes less is more
