Yes, being patient is tough. Development in such an open environment
can lead to grousing, but the increased feedback, compared to a
relatively small number of testers, will eventually pay off with a
much better design than if Elecraft had decided to freeze the
firmware before releasing the K3.
I see a lot of similar complaints on one of the forums for Directv
satellite receivers (I have been involved in some of their field
tests). It often seems like the developmental process is really slow
(and sometimes it is) but I, for one, appreciate the visibility of
what is happening (some of that is just the engineer in me trying to
come to terms with being retired).
