Using casio fx-CG500 as a Digital Diary ??

Hope you agree with me.
Thanks.

In principle, I agree, but the fx-CG500 that's sold in the US does not have a QWERTY keyboard - it's arranged in a more calculator-like ABC layout. It's because of a stupid SAT (or was it ACT?) rule prohibiting devices with QWERTY keyboards which was instated around the time the TI-92 was released, and it's one of my least favorite things about that model. Not sure where you're located, or if the keyboard layout is any different there, so research carefully before buying one.
