RE: The 50G, this wonder...
Totally agree with the 50G being the best exemplified with this date arithmetic function.

May i also add that, on the other brand calculator I once had to wrote a brute force program to do date addition, when this is built in the 50G using the DATE+ function.

Yes, it could. I need my boss and my clients to magically vanish for a few months and I could make it happen.

SD cards are not a problem. SD vs SDHC is only a software change. The newRPL ROM will support SDHC cards. As long as they still support the old 4-bit transfer modes (which is mandatory as far as I know), they should work.
Size > 2GB is also a software issue, won't be a problem with newRPL.

I 2nd that. Literally. I just ordered a backup 50g (just in case). Amazon was kind enough to let me know that I already ordered this item in 2006. This new one does not have the leather(et?) case, but I think I actually like this other case too.

I wrote a game for the Prime then it got lost in the mess that is my desk. It's batteries have long died. If newRPL or other better experience emerge I'll give the Prime a 2nd chance.

Recreationally for me its anything HP-IL right now with the 71B in the lead. Perhaps its time to get a serial PIL-Box + 50g on the loop.

I had yet problems with my HP's in hardware. I do not want to describe details. Thank you, HP! My patience has a limit.
What for did I buy your calcs and squandered time on UG and AUR? All resulted in that it is needed to repair them and buy yet. I will leave HP-50 on a computer as the best calc, but in the real life force to come back to CASIO and CITIZEN.
