Just curious - other than placing an order early to get earlier 
delivery, from whence cometh the obsession with a low S/N?  The guy who 
flies the S/N 0001 aircraft is called a "Test Pilot" and generally makes 
more money than a vanilla "Pilot," for good reasons.  I ordered my K3 
last month, and with all the reflector traffic about firmware revisions, 
downloading, and version control, I'm hoping my S/N will be high enough 
that things Aptos-wise will have stabilized some.  Am I missing 
something important here?
