Such things are probably doable, Kevin. But the
market size issue is likely a major factor
mitigating against such a development by Elecraft.
If I were to build a second K2 after all these
years, I'd sure want the KDSP2 in it; but that's
not something I'm likely to do. My (partly) 17
year old K2 #380 is still working quite nicely and
fully upgraded with all Elecraft updates -- and
some 3rd party ones, too :-)

When I saw the announcement I wondered about the
possibility of new version of the KDSP2 that was
based on an FPGA such as a Spartan 6 (for example).
I'm not sure how it would affect the price but
it would make the board a little less prone to
parts decaying in to the state of unobtanium.
