RE: New releases
Hi Valentin,

Many thanks for your kind words, much appreciated.

As for the miniscreen, the discussion was actually public, it took place on this forum, and you archived it on your Web site. You first mentionned a multi-line display, and then Olivier annunced (and delivered) the mini-screen option:

Of course you were not the only one interested in this option. I was too, and so were many others, it was a killer feature, the single line LCD of the 71B restricted a lot the practical usage of its very advanced (for the time) language, as you wrote in "Long live the HP-71B".

Now that we have the full Python power on calculators (HP /TI/Casio/Numworks) with multi-line display, color syntaxing, autocompletion, code templates, commands catalogs, you name it, I find it very difficult to use a purely text-based interface on a mobile device. RPN keystrokes calculators (42S, 41cx, 15C...) are more usable, because precisely they just involve keystrokes. Emu71 is great on a PC with a full keyboard. I tried it on my mobile phone under Dosbox, it works fine, but my fingers are too big to type anything long on it... Smile

Cheers,

Vincent
