The PCB would be powered using the AAA batteries.

But then again, if db48x/newrpl comes to the hp50, then there's no need for the surgery. I just dislike keyboard overlays and stickers.

Meanwhile I use db50x on my dm42n daily.

NewRPL is already available for the 50g - am I missing something in this discussion?

Newrpl is not as feature rich as DB48X. Also is is not under active development any more.
