Erm - no it doesnt - the KP3 has a few drum noises in there that could be useful to a DJ for carrying a beat over a transition, but nothing that much use in music creation - the radias has alot of excellent proper drum sounds, good for many genres of music along with alot of useful patterns.
I have both - the KP3 is a very fun DJ fx tool - while it may share some code with the Radias, I cant say that I particularly notice the herritage in the resulting sound. Radias filters and fx are way better. The synthy noises in the KP3 certainly have a radias character to them - that is the bit that I think Korg refer to when they talk about technolgy from the radias in the KP3.
On poly use your missing the point on drum polyphony with the TI as well. If you want 10 drum sounds - the you will need 10 patches in multi mode - ie 10 midi channels - that will leave you 6 for synth parts.
Actually now that you bring up the radias - maybe it might suit you better as a starting synth? Though if you have the cash - go for the TI to start with a use a sofware based drum machine plugin for now, or you could use the radias to cover both. Radias is fixed at 4 part multi-timberal, but it has a huge advantage over the TI for drums - it actually has a drum mode so you can stick a whole loads of drums sounds in one patch - unlike the TI where you need separate patches.
Nice demo camus
Also F5D posted a really nice prog rock type thing ages ago with some really good natural-like drum sounds in it.
