(Giggle...) I think it actually would be possible to home-brew your own P2. Just buy a P3, take it apart, and mount the components in an EC2 chassis.
The LCD display looks like it would just barely fit - you'd have to come up with some way to mount it to the front panel. The Front Panel PC board would probably have to be mounted at an angle so that the flex PCB cables that come out of the LCD can reach while still having access to the connectors on the back (bottom) side. You could wire up the switch contacts to mechanical switches on the front panel. I think it would be cool if someone did that. I just want to see the look on the face of the Elecraft customer service technician when you send it in for repair!
