I am sure they are working on it.  They want a great product when it comes
out and not get the criticism brought about by not being ready to release.
This is a first class co and the few times items were released that required
upgrades, etc., I am sure that flies against what they see as their business
model.  They have had a few dings.  If we pressure them enough, we probably
won't hear any hints, nor will they release until perfect.

I'd suggest some relaxation therapy.  A glass or two of fine peaty Islay single malt and perhaps a fine hand rolled cigar from the Aficionado top 10 list.  This variety of aromatherapy comes highly recommended, even though it isn't always spouse friendly, if that's a consideration.

Neither (if they're any good) will save you pennies -- but, they're pennies well allocated :-) .

I have downloaded the Elecraft K3 utility and have it running on my
Ubuntu computer.  The utility communicates with the K3 and sees the
firmware version I presently have as 2.7.  Right now the serial port
speed on my computer is 9600 baud.  However, I can't find a recommended
port speed to use for the firmware upgrade in the K3 utility
documentation.  Can someone clue me in?

I scored an LP-PAN for $135 on EBay, and already have a secondary ProSonus Firewire soundcard, so my panadaptor needs are met.

That said, a dedicated unit like the P3 looks very nice.

I will guess $600. :>) A wild guess......

I'd still really like to hear a price...  And another projected date.
If its missed so be it but at least another point in time and a ballpark
price point would go a long way I think.

The K3 Utility finds the K3 at the speed it is set to (see the K3 CONFIG
menu, RS232).  

It does this by polling at all four of the supported K3 speeds.

During firmware load the K3 Utility changes the speed to 38400 bps and then
restores it to the original speed after a successful firmware load.

It's not described in great detail because you don't need to do anything to
pick any particular speed.
