So it's within the realm of possibilities that a device similar to the 
K-pod could be made using the RJ-45, with a sound card added, for full 
network access?  That would simplify remote ops or allow a tablet to 
control or even more.  If you can control the radio via that port, the 
K3/S is nearly at that point now.
