waterdreamer,
I have Yamaha YPT320 61-Key Portable Keyboard.
I posted here all the details:
http://softmozart.com/forum/12-technical-questons/418-connecting-a-computer-and-a-keyboard.html#418You can read more keyboard recommendation on SM forum.
They also recommend Casio keyboards, If I were you I would look into them as well.
Most of the BK moms group ,that buying SM software, are planning to give it as a Christmas Present, so after Christmas there will be more keyboard reviews I am sure.
If you are note sure about the keyboard, you can just buy software first
