What would you like to see in a future HP Prime II? (HP Prime², HP Prime 2X)

I agree with some posts written in this thread: the current G2 hardware is great. I want a calculator to perform my work with a minimum of tools and avoid distractions. For more demanding tasks or when I am ready with my ideas, I go to the computer: more powerful and… with Internet. Higher graphical capabilities can be purely cosmetic and lead to more power consumption: I don’t expect that from a calculator.

About the current G2 hardware, there are some minor issues to me:

• The angle of view of the screen (yes: the screen polarisers are upside-down).
• The orange lettering combined with the white keys: not the best contrast. Maybe something brown?
  

But for sure, I really prefer that efforts are driven at polishing details of the current software setup. After some days analysing my new HP-Prime, and comparing it with my HP 50g, these are the usability features I miss:
- A more agile keyboard/touch screen operation:

• As written in a previous post, I miss some kind of [LastMENU] and [LastCMD] softkeys to reuse the last operations at one touch (https://www.hpmuseum.org/forum/thread-1817-page-6.html).
• Some more edition options while editing a program on the calculator, e.g.: double touch to select a word in the text, triple touch to select a line.
  

- Custom softkey menus:

• Currently there is a DRAWMENU command that can be combined with the coordinates given by the MOUSE command. I would like an easier procedure to display the custom menu while working at Home or CAS, as it was implemented in previous models, e.g., {{“MENUITEM1”, user_programA} { “MENUITEM2”, variableB} "StringtoOutput"}.
  

As said, when I use the calculator, I don’t expect to have a computer next to me most of the time (for documents I use an e-reader). I have to say that the more I check the machine with the HP Prime manuals but also with the GIAC/XCAS specific manuals, the more I see that the software capabilities are awesome.
