Ken, Nope, me neither. I am portabe 24/7, so is my not so smart screen phone, when in daylight the touch screen is useless. The sunlight shines on my k3 and I don't have any issue so using a touch screen would be an order of magnitude I ain't gonna deal with. Maybe a K3-TS?...a remote touch screen app with full k3 control? It's just not gonna happen in my case. My K3 is approaching adolescence, gee what a wonderful time we are still having daily on air.
