Korg Zero 8 mixer?

Folks,

This mixer was introduced new at the winter 2007 NAMM. I was wondering if any of you present there got an impression or two to share.
Looks like it is a audio/midi firewire interfaces/mixer etc.
It also include a touch-display interface - even if it is small, mind you - it might be worth.
Seems like it is geared towards DJ-ing in use with Ableton, but might present a very convenient way for musicians that want to control their own monitoring mix, house send, harware effect units integration, etc.

Any thoughts?
thanks,
GAbi.

There is a really good review in Futuremusic

Interesting thing about the zero 8 is that the LCD screen act like a Kaoss Pad

Looks wicked.
I just WISH one of these companies would make a 16 channel version!!! Even 12 would be ok! Just 8 is never enough!! Would need to get 2 for my live sets.

The zero 8 is a xone 3d killer.
