[Elecraft] K3 and Firewire

[Paul at N4LCD.com]

Just thinking out loud into the future....

Firewire can do a lot of things that USB and serial communications never will.

It's faster with video and disk I/O because the protocol is leaner, 
and you can create networks with it.

I think that a FireWire network between a rig like the K3 and a 
computer would be the perfect interface because every piece of 
software can have its own dedicated connection to the radio, 
something difficult to implement with a serial connection.

Firewire will also stay around because it's used as the Fly-by-wire 
bus for the F-22 Raptor.

Any thoughts?
