Indeed. LP-PAN will continue to be a very cost effective, integrated approach
to not only a pan/waterfall display, but also an inexpensive dual receiver
with the digital processing and filtering of PowerSDR, point-and-click
tuning for VFO A and VFO B, high quality AM with synchronous detector, etc.

LP-PAN will continue to be developed on the software side. PowerSDR-IF will
very shortly be at the same version level as the official Flex Radio
release, and the time and effort that went into the latest rewrite will make
it much easier to keep it in step with the Flex releases. Likewise,
LP-Bridge will continue to evolve, and there will be a major release to go
with PowerSDR-IF v1.19 once it's stable.

It remains to be seen what the impact of P3 will be on sales of LP-PAN
without seeing the feature set, cost and computer integration flexibility of
P3.
