I was hoping that the 39gII and the Prime would share the same source code with two makefile targets. Something like this.

It is sad to see this 39GII going away so soon. I believe it was released in 2012, so it last just two short years at most!

Thanks for your input.
I still think 45€ was on the highish side, even if this includes the s&h costs.
To be honest, I was not expecting to win the auction, even considering the calculator model being offered.
So I have just put my maximum bet and forgot about it.
But apparently there are not so many fans out there looking for this specific model, and I had just two other bidders that didn't even tried hard to win.
