The same is, to a lesser degree, true for the M-Audio Venom (discussed in-depth on this list some time ago: http://loopers-delight.com/LDarchive/201102/msg00132.html): http://de.m-audio.com/products/de_de/Venom.html - which is also a little bit bigger. A similar concept, albeit with smaller keyboard, is found in Novation's Xio: http://www.novationmusic.com/products/hardware_synths/xio In short: if you want to get a really huge bandwidth of sounds, in my experience it makes sense to go for something sample-waveform-based, and that is usually not the case for the really small keyboards. Alternative: get a small and inexpensive MIDI masterkeyboard (for sub-€100) and a small sound module, something like Roland Sound Canvas series, which are really jack-of-all-trades sound generators.
