Second and third choices would be either the HP-41CX with the Advantage Module or the HP-42s. The current model is the HP-35s. An excellent choice if you are into a re-purposed calculator called the WP-34s.

Yes, I forgot to mention it has to be a current model. I live in South America and older models are very rare and can't be found in stores. Even the 50g is not all that easy to find these days. Around here, Casio dominates the market of scientific calculators, they have plenty of options but I think I will get an HP.

I heard the WP-34s has received good reviews but I don't think they ship to Brazil, do they? Even if they did, the cost would be at least 3x as much.

Basically, I would like it to be able to solve non-linear equations, perform stat analysis, find roots etc, no need for matrix manipulation as I already have the Prime and the 50g for that.

Thank you.
