lim (1+1/n)^n

rather than:

lim ((1+1/n)^n)

The second one gave the right answer.

I didn't have this problem on the 50g since I was in RPN mode. I entered:

2: '(1+1/n)^n'
1: 'n=+∞'

then hit the "limit" softkey.
Well, I don't see the value of adding one more level of parentheses. To me this is clearly a bug.
