All this is fun and good, but if you are selling it, it needs to be 
listed as a K3 SN xxxx with the specific upgrades enumerated - so the 
buyer knows what he is buying.

I have run into this problem many, many times with the early K2s - they 
are listed as being upgraded, only to find out (for instance) that only 
the firmware has been changed while the A to B upgrades have not been 
installed.
What upgraded means to one person does not equal the perception of 
another person.
