You can already download memory files to the IC-706... there is software that does this very well.. It uses the C-IV interface on the 706.

What has kept me from buying most mobile rigs is the lack of a computer
interface that lets me download and upload memory files to and from the
radio.
Its beyond me why any computer interface to a radio doesn't always include
that feature... or why bother at all eh?
The ability to load frequencies of interest based on current events going on
in the world (ham and swl), and for different travel destinations is
important to me. It takes a lot of time to manually load frequencies. It
takes a long time to create memory files too for various interest support.
But when done, it is so fast and convenient to change those memory channels,
even on the road with a lap top.
Keep in mind I prefer the radio to be as free of a computer connection to
work fully and completely. I don't want a computer to have to be connected
to fake the memory files for me that are not there when the radio is bare
bones.
