I'm thinking of three major computer-related 'opportunities' for the K3:
[1] A true network device with Ethernet (maybe USB but this is overkill
IMHO),
[2] Access to bandscope info via the network.
[3] Audio / digital pre-audio data via the network.
This hardware is not too expensive nowadays, and if there is a willing group
of programmers the computer software needed can be free. The FlexRadio
software is gently moving in this direction, may be a good testbed for these
ideas.
Obviously an external box could be built which handles this for all radios
but what I really, really want is bandscope data at a nice high speed.
I'm so impressed with my KX-1 kit that I am having a battle with my VISA
card to stop me buying a K1 as well :-)

You can do this with an embedded serial device server using any radio with
a serial port... but of course you are limited to the supported
commands/data on that port. If you have access to QST, see my article in
the October edition... or go to the "Remote Control of Networked Station
Equipment" link on my website, www.telepostinc.com
I think most high-end radios will eventually include an ethernet port...
or possibly even wi-fi.
