New P3/SVGA firmware is now available as a general release.  This firmware is
currently shipping in all new factory built and kit P3's and SVGA boards.  
If you are upgrading from a BETA release, please make sure data terminal
mode and fixed tune are turned OFF before upgrading.   You will need version
1.12.4.26 or later of the P3 Utility which is available  here
<http://www.elecraft.com/software/P3/elecraft_p3_software.htm#p3util>  . 
For help with data terminal mode, macros and beacon features, refer to the 
Quick Start Guide <ftp://ftp.elecraft.com/P3/firmware/DataQuickStart.pdf>  . 
An updated manual will be available shortly.

and is off when keyboard is removed.
