Let's all not loose sight that this release is a B E T A. There will be bugs. There will be another release. Feedback regarding issues found is what the developers want out of this cycle. We are lucky Elecraft has decided to run a public beta cycle. Typically, beta releases are released to far fewer testers, for a longer period of time. Beta testers know that it isn't a Production release and don't expect it to be ready for prime time. If you are having issues and need the P3 fully operational to pre-P3TXMON conditions, then the production release can be flashed back into the P3 and you are back in business.
The obvious reason to run a public beta is to get a larger surface area...so that the issues can be identified more quickly and the developers can knock the bugs out more rapidly and get to a Production status rapidly. The commitment to quality goes untarnished in my eyes. Many of us don't yet even have the P3TXMON hardware so we are yet to jump in with feedback. When UPS comes by, I'll be pushing all the buttons and helping make the P3 as perfect as it can be.
