The keyboard of my DM15CC is a nightmare. OTOH, the firmware seems to be bugfree with some extras. These guys should produce a replacement-PCB for the 15C LE.

i contacted them a few months back suggesting that they produce a 'full-sized' version as a retrofit. the reply was:
"
Re: PCB available as a retrofit to original housing
Hi Rob,
Thanks for your thoughts.
But I rather make a complete calculator in the original size with some added features...
Best regards,

so there may be some hope, but not for a retrofit. might i suggest we start a petition asking that they consider a full-sized version complete 15C? i have a few ideas on how the mechanical engineering could be simplified, while still retaining the robustness and usability. really, most of us would be very happy with something the same size (or even a little bigger) than the original 15C.
