I agree with that, my pc of choice is a Mac, so its either got to be platform independent or platform less, and I'm leaning towards the later. Let us buy the display of our choice and support most reasonable resolutions. USB K/B if you'll need one, but keypad controls on the unit would be better.
However, I wonder if what Elecraft have in mind is a Panadapter in the firmware of the K3 and use the ACC connector for a display. Or perhaps its another plug-in module with an additional connector for display? Just done see where that would fit on the back.
