Besides, I'm used to my old 48 so anything above it looks like airspace technology to me ;D.

I think it all depends on what you want from the calculator. For me, speed is crucial. The very feature that made me move on from the 50g to the Prime. I don't care much about the apps or the touchscreen, don't even know how to use most of them.

BTW, you're gonna love the 50g.

I can't remember how to write the left arrow for local variables. Where was it?.

[Cancuino]

No, I mean the left arrow for compiled local variables.

CHARS on the keybord (right shift - EVAL)

Thank you Helix, I completely forgot about it.

If I press TOOL -> NXT, CASCH and HELP do exactly the same thing. I find this quite strange since there's no need to use two different keys for the same thing. Am I missing something?.

Thanks.

I've noticed that, too. Probably a very minor mistake in the firmare…

BTW, What's the difference between the user's manual and the user's guide?.

Download both from HP, they are still available. They are both large documents, with little duplication. Though I think the intention was one is a introduction, and the other for reference, in fact to really learn all of the machine you will need to read (or at least reference) both volumes. They're free PDF files - get 'em.
