[Elecraft] P3 wish

Displayport or HDMI output from the P3.

Recently I've seen the advantage of 
Blu-Ray quality video compared to 
conventional DVD quality video with my HD 
TV. For those like me, the difference is 
more than a little and the definition is 
incredibly life-like and very desirable.

I looked at my TV and monitor, both have 
conventional video, Displayport and HDMI 
inputs. I'd like to be able to connect the 
P3 to the monitor with this quality 
display. HDMI now is at V 2.0 and 
Displayport is V 1.4A. 

The earlier Displayport versions offer 
essentially the same definition as the 
newest HDMI, with the newer Displayport 
doubling the new HDMI standard.

Inexpensive cables to convert from 
Displayport to HDMI & vice versa are 
readily available. Most PCs and by far 
most of the laptops have Displayport or 
HDMI video outputs nowadays. My 5 year old 
HP laptop has Displayport & VGA not HDMI. 
The Displayport is the new standard, HDMI 
is legacy and will also persist for the 
foreseeable future. 

I'd like to see Displayport or HDMI 
incorporated into the P3.

Thanks & 73,

Gary
