[Elecraft] Still lacking

As a portable user of the K2 and Vertex 1210, I was thrilled to hear about
the new KX3. 

After reading the preliminary specs however, I think I´ll stick to my
existing radios. Why?

- 10 W is insufficient power for portable SSB operation on the lower bands,
at least in Europe. 20-25 W as the 1210 has is still low, but acceptable in
terms of balancing power with current consumption.

- My old 1210 has built in Lithium batteries which are light, high capacity
and fast charging. Why not in the KX3??
