Akiko Minelli?

Have you heard the new Akiko Minelli?  It's reported to be the Corelli's little brother.  A friend brought his Corelli over for me to hear, and I was very impressed.  Now that Akiko has the Minelli (at about half the cost of the Corelli), I'd like to know what your thoughts are on the new Minelli, and even more specifically, how does the Minelli compare to the Corelli?
Thanks!
