[Elecraft] Revised Shipping date for K3

[johnny]

Hello Julian,
=20
The situation facing Elecraft is perfectly understandable and I would =
simply keep my finger crossed.
=20
However, it is also interesting in listening to other people's views =
including complaints.  When you look back the whole process since the =
acceptance of order in May 2007, you will be able to 'feel'.
=20
I am sure both Eric and Wayne would learn something and know the ways to =
improve in future.  What is lucky here (or in fact the success of =
Elecraft), is that they have a high quality and loyal customer base.
=20
Just let us be patience.  However, if any of you wants to say something =
or even a complaint, just voice it out.  Criticism could be sometimes =
constructive and beneficial to the success of a company.
