Yeah, that is basically it.

For the languages ...
  • RPN is represented as key codes in Classic, Woodstock, Topcat, Spice/Spike, Sting (19C) & Voyager series
  • RPN is represented as function names in Nut & Pioneer (RPN models) series
  • BASIC is used in 75C/D & 71B
  • FORTH is available for 75C/D & 71B
  • RPL is used in Champion & 48/49/50 series
  • PPL is used in Prime & others (38G? not sure of this one)

Excellent summary!
