Quote:From the HP team:

“Since 1968, HP calculators have been synonymous with professional engineering, science and business. Professionals in all these fields rely on HP to deliver the accurate and reliable tools their jobs demand. In order to meet the ongoing needs of our customers, HP has introduced the cutting-edge HP Prime Graphing Calculator platform and will be ending manufacturing of the HP 50g Graphing Calculator in 2015.

While the HP 50g Graphing Calculator and its predecessors have been successful hardware platforms, it is the close partnership with our user community that has transformed them into powerful and robust mathematical tools. By continuing to partner with the professional and development communities, the HP Prime platform will apply many new technical features including a full-color interface, multi-touch display and app-based interface to define the new standard for professionals.”

Any confirmation or dementi?
