The big advantage, at least on the P3, is that when you move the tuning knob, you don't lose your signal averaging and waterfall history. Keeping the waterfall makes it a lot easier to tune to an infrequent signal, like the DX running a pileup.

I haven't tried a keyboard on the P3 since it doesn't support hubs and all my spare keyboards are Apple keyboards with built in hubs.
