RE: Your First Handheld?
In 1974 I got my first calculators. It was a scientific sharp (very similar to SHARP PC-1802) that a Japanese technician (working with the French oil exploration company ELF-ERAP, where my aunt worked) got me from Japan. I had asked for a Canon Palmatronic scientific but got the Sharp. When my aunt told me that the Japanese technician had returned and mentioned the calculator's relatively low cost, I though he brought me a simple four-function calculator. I was very delighted to see that it was a scientific calculator. I also realized that the trend in electronics was one of decreasing prices.
My second calculator was the HP-55. Namir |
