[Elecraft] K3 firmware updates under Linux/ARM?

Hi,

As the current Linux/Intel desktop at my station decided take its last 
breath, I am exploring the option of replacing it with an ARM based 
system; either Banana Pi (ARM based computer; about $45) or Raspberry 
Pi2 (about the same for $35). I have figured out everything else (dual 
monitor support, USB-RS232, logging programs etc.) but the only missing 
piece is to be able to update the firmware in my K3. The firmware update 
program is available only for Linux/Intel platforms and not for Linux/ARM.

Are there any plans to support Linux/ARM in the future? At this point it 
would be enough for me to hear that such support is planned.

Thanks,

Jussi Eloranta (AA6KJ)
