In my humble opinion, we don't need a K3. I'm perfectly content with the K2
as it is. It does evrything I need from a rig, and does it well. I would
probably never use the stuff people want to add. (By the way, besides being
a QRPer and CW man, I'm an advanced DXer.)
I am in awe of the engineering that went into the K2. For one thing, just
look at the way the case fits together.
If I had one nit-pick, I wish the ad-hoc point to point wiring of some
components (key click filter, etc.) were not necessary.

But it seems pretty evident that Elecraft should
seriously pursue creating a K3 base rig, with at
least:
K3 HF Transceiver
consider including VHF
100W pep minimum included
CW, SSB included
.. then other options if need be
a real NB
DSP in the IF, somehow standard
consider GP coverage in receive
larger front panel, knobs and buttons
LCD color base display
