[Elecraft] P3 feature discussion - time to relax a bit ;-)

[Eric Swartz - WA6HHQ, Elecraft]

Don't worry - we're really good at trimming the pile of requested 
features down to the core group we release the product with. We will not 
overload the P3 with a plethora of fringe features.

Guys - Let's calm down the discussion on the P3 features a bit. We 
certainly do still want to hear all of your suggestions, but please do 
not argue back and forth on the merits of any suggestion, regardless of 
how off center it might be. We'll do that internally here :-) Also, 
please do not assume that anything is totally set in concrete. We're 
making a lot of fine tuned adjustments to the design based on feedback 
received so far.

We are very focused on getting the P3 out the door this year and are 
making sure creeping elegance doesn't push its release out past the 2012 
elections..

Also, we can't answer every query on the P3 right now. We're very busy 
both working on it and on our other near term projects like the latest 
K3 f/w release, the W2 release and the K144XV release. We'll post more 
on the P3 as we have time an its feature set firms up.

And have no fear, we're not going to add 'wallpaper' backgrounds to the 
P3 display ;-)

73, Eric  WA6HHQ
