Dave I agree that the delay in deliver is disappointing. I have a second receiver on order too. I also am disappointed by the lack of maturity of the firmware.
HOWEVER - I have a K3 (#70) and it is a joy to use. What it does, it does VERY well and I still believe that the remaining features will be implemented and operating annoyances fixed.
