I'm in the same boat as you.  Put my P3/SVGA together a few weeks ago.  I'm
really pleased with it.  Sure its not NaP3 (which I had before), but not
relying on my shack PC (that goes into cooling-fan overdrive) is well worth
the money.  Plus the entire P3 is entirely hooked into my K3 (monitor
excluded of course).  You'll get used to using the markers to QSY and soon
it'll be easier than using the mouse.

Helpful tip: Set FN1-FN4 to various spans (I have mine set to 25, 50, 100,
200).

I initially thought it wouldn't be worth the money, now i'm wondering why I
didnt buy one a long time ago.
