I'm the author of the post that Bill (W4ZV) quoted. My experiments with the PowerMate are recent and on-going. I'm considering modifying my software to support more than one PowerMate :-) It's rather handy to be able to change the *receive* frequency while transmitting, without disrupting the transmit frequency or the formation of Morse characters. Some radios severely hose CW if you fiddle with front panel controls while transmitting. The K3 is pretty good about this, but not yet perfect. W4NL noted that the TenTec 315 soft-rubber trim rings fit the K3 VFOA knob nicely. They also fit the PowerMate knob, although not quite as snugly; no comment on color choices.
