RE: What would you like to see in a future HP Prime II?
For the real calculator:

It would have been nice to have had VGA resolution on the original calculator - this would have made the periodic table clearer. But implementing that now is not so useful when compared to phone resolutions. Better would be some sort of Hdmi port (or wifi/USB?) enabling a high resolution display. And a mechanism to keep the screen undimmed.

Sound output would be nice - a simple beep when results are ready.

A full micropython implementation (or even Python).

But alternatively, an emulated Prime calculator running on a Raspberry Pi - immediately giving full Python, C, Mathematica and other languages, and Hdmi ports, packaged with a calculator-sized screen and battery.

And a qwerty keyboard.
