With a linux computer built into the K4, the door is open for wifi (or
bluetooth) access to an iOS device (or a standard computer). Unless
Elecraft designed their own motherboard, it's likely already available
on the board they're using and if they did roll their own, it may be in
the chip set chosen for the wired access. Wayne and team aren't
ignorant in this want and have done a good job of looking forward when
designing.
I expect a developer to step up at some point to make this 'simple' BUT
it may only allow K4 access, not logbook, rotator, tuner, amplifier
(etc) control. That would mean more non-wired access.
The the K3 line, I use TeamViewer to access the computer controlling the
station from any platform I have at hand (and Skype for audio, if CW or
phone). This includes my iOS devices. Sometimes the most direct path is
the simplest.

How do you plan to connect the iPad to the radio? The K3 typically connects
thru a RS232 or USB port. Neither are available on an iPad.
