OP-2 with no screen just an iOS app to connect with for interface. Please no! It's always the screens, I built dozens and dozens of Ornament and Crimes and the screens were the main issue, getting supply of the right one and not having any defects in them after powering up.

It will be a cult collectib= le. It's capable enough and quirky enough to just make you create lots of l= ittle sketches fast. I'm still on the fence about the OP-Z.
