Re: 49G spotted Message #2 Posted by Les Bell on 21 May 1999, 2:34 a.m., in response to message #1 by Karl Hafen It certainly looks real, although I've been fooled before . However, there was supposed to be some sort of announcement in France today, so . . . I downloaded the PDF, and from my schoolboy French it appears that it has 512K of RAM and 1 MB of flash ROM as standard. Choice of RPN or algebraic operation. Nothing on the HP US web site yet, though.

Re: 49G spotted Message #4 Posted by Steve Simpkin on 14 June 1999, 3:20 p.m., in response to message #3 by KcmB Very funny Klaus! The HP49G is quite real. Look for it to appear in August for about $169.00 US. If you can't wait, pre-order it now from Wholesale Products at: http://www.wholesaleproducts.com/hpcalcs.html or from Wholesale Advantage (probably the same company)at: http://www.wholesaleadvantage.com/hpcalcs_content.html#calculators A detailed FAQ about the HP49G is located at: http://hp48.ml.org/hp49/docs/faq/
